Two architects, a mechanical engineer, and an electrical engineer\u2014and you have Levaru. The Munich-based startup is working on making elevator installations faster and more cost-effective. The four founders reveal exactly what they're planning to do in our 7 questions. <\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Who are you and what do you do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Levaru develops digital technologies for precision work in elevator construction. During elevator installation, the guide rails along which the car travels must be adjusted to a precision of fractions of a millimeter. This is currently done manually and often takes more than a week for a high-rise shaft. Furthermore, quality cannot be guaranteed, which is why elevators often begin to jerk during travel.<\/p>\n

Our digital assistance device not only ensures the work is carried out correctly, but also significantly accelerates the installation process. This saves money and results in a quiet, low-maintenance elevator.<\/p>\n

Our four-person team consists of the two initiators Julian Trummer (24) and Wolfram Meiner (25), who developed the concept at the Faculty of architecture<\/a> at the Technical University of Munich. Swagat Chopra (32), electrical engineer and computer vision expert, along with mechanical engineer Heitor Gartner (23), completed the team in summer 2018.<\/p>\n

Compact and intuitive solution<\/h3>\n

2. But that's been around for a long time!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of course, but these are complicated, error-prone, and require laborious manual configuration. Our compact solution is intuitive, fast, and can also guarantee the quality of the work.<\/p>\n

3. What has been your biggest challenge so far<\/strong><\/p>\n

Perhaps one of our small weaknesses is the fact that we are a very technically savvy team and therefore tend to get lost in details.<\/p>\n

But generally we look forward to new challenges because they bring the team together and you learn an incredible amount from the experience.<\/p>\n

4. Let\u2019s get down to business: How is business going? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Since we're currently in the product development phase, there are few concrete figures yet. However, we're planning a flexible business model that addresses the global elevator market and encompasses approximately one million new installations per year.<\/p>\n

Munich ideal location for Levaru<\/h3>\n

5. What does Munich mean to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although we come from a variety of regions around the world, Munich has become our home. The network surrounding the Technical University of Munich and a wide range of suppliers, investors, and customers make the city an ideal location for us.<\/p>\n

6. How will your startup become the next unicorn? Or will we see you soon at Epic Fail Night?<\/strong><\/p>\n

While both sound exciting, we'd obviously prefer the first option. We're certainly excited to see what the future holds!<\/p>\n

7. Isar or English Garden?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why not both? On a beautiful afternoon, you can easily combine the two, ideally with a short bike ride!<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
