HEUKING advises Aachen-based AI start-up OSPHIM on its financing round
HEUKING legally advised Aachen-based AI start-up OSPHIM on its financing round. OSPHIM GmbH is developing an innovative assistance platform for production systems with a particular focus on plastics manufacturing. Its goal is to advance the industry sustainably through data-driven technologies and validated AI methods, delivering tangible value for customers.
OSPHIM’s founding team – Louisa, Yannik, Mauritius and Jakob – brings more than 30 years of combined experience in plastics processing, software development, and business strategy. With deep sector expertise and a commitment to continuous innovation, they help customers increase efficiency and precision in manufacturing.
In total, OSPHIM was able to secure the support of nine investors in the early-stage financing round. With the capital increase, the new shareholders acquire corresponding shares in OSPHIM GmbH. A shareholders' agreement will be concluded between the shareholders after the capital increase has been implemented.
OSPHIM develops AI-based software solutions for the plastics processing industry. The app combines data visualization, anomaly detection, and intelligent process setup for informed decisions with minimal data usage—AI made in Germany. The plug-and-play system can be seamlessly integrated into existing production environments and enables efficient control. The company was founded in January 2024 by Dr. Louisa Desel, Yannik Lockner, Mauritius Schmitz, and Jakob Pesch.
HEUKING supported OSPHIM comprehensively on all legal aspects of structuring and implementing the financing round.
