Lars Gussen is a seed investor at TechVision Fund in Cologne focused on Software and Construction.

Although detailed planning data is created upfront, a lack of suitable digital tools prevents its transfer to the construction site. SPECTER’s web-based construction management software uniquely incorporates the core components of constructionplanning, reducing the organizational burden on construction management and helping to meet project timelines and budgets. | $5.4M | Seed | Mar 26, 2025 |  |
