LEA Partners invests in Enscape
LEA Partners has invested an undisclosed amount in Germany-based architecture, engineering and construction software business Enscape.
Previous investor High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF) will continue to hold a stake in the company, as will Enscape's founders, Thomas Willberger and Moritz Luck.
A source familiar with the situation told Unquote that LEA approached the company directly to initiate the first-time investment.
The GP invested from LEA Mittelstandspartner Fund, which held a final close in May 2018 on €200m. The fund writes equity cheques of €10-40m. It takes both minority and majority stakes, and also provides growth capital investments.
Enscape plans to use the fresh capital to fund its R&D capabilities and international expansion, according to a statement.
Company
Enscape provides simulation software for the architecture, engineering and construction industries via real-time 3D rendering and visualisation technology. It generates revenues of less than €25m. It claims to have a customer base spanning 80 countries. The company was founded in 2017 and is based in Karlsruhe, with a New York office that opened in August 2018.
