This significant capital injection reflects strong investor confidence in Spacetek’s vision and validates its growing technological and commercial momentum. The company’s TOF-MS systems are now installed in some of the world’s most advanced semiconductor manufacturing facilities.
Technologiefonds’ rigorous due diligence confirmed the tangible environmental and performance benefits of Spacetek’s platform. Customers leveraging Spacetek’s real-time gas analysis capabilities are achieving higher yields, reduced waste, and measurable reductions in CO₂ emissions — a testament to the company’s mission to enhance both process efficiency and sustainability.
“We are entering the most critical phase of growth,” said Maximilian Rothenberger, CEO of Spacetek Technology AG. “This financing enables us to accelerate global deployments, expand our technology roadmap, and support an industry increasingly reliant on precise, clean, and efficient process control.”
The funding round comes at a time of heightened attention to metrology as a strategic enabler in advanced semiconductor manufacturing. Innovations in metrology are key to meeting the demands of nanometer precision and sustainable production at scale.
Spacetek’s technology continues to push boundaries beyond the cleanroom. The company is expanding its SPACE DNA — the high-reliability, low-maintenance design philosophy rooted in aerospace engineering — into mission-critical applications for both European and U.S. space programs.
To support its accelerating growth, Spacetek has reinforced its leadership with the addition of three accomplished executives: Samuel Rensing as Chief Operating Officer (COO), Dr. Niklas Ermann as Chief Technology Officer (CTO), and Gunnar Schröder as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO). This expanded management structure brings decades of experience across high-tech operations, deep-tech R&D, and global sales in the semiconductor and scientific instrumentation sectors. Their collective expertise will be instrumental as Spacetek scales production, drives customer success, and advances its innovation agenda.
Christian Studer, Chairman of the Board of Directors, commented, “This milestone financing and the strengthening of our leadership team mark a major step forward in Spacetek’s journey. We are proud to support a company that is not only pushing technological limits but also delivering measurable environmental impact.”
