Esslingen, 06.05.2024 – The spare parts platform Markt-Pilot clears another financing hurdle and acquires EUR 40 million. The venture capital experts at Luther Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft advised founder and shareholder Tobias Rieker.
Markt-Pilot can further develop with the successful completion of one of the largest European Series A financing rounds this year. Led by the global software investor Insight Partners from New York City and the existing investor Capnamic, Markt-Pilot has emerged stronger from the financing round. The Esslingen-based company will use the capital to further expand its business in Europe and the USA and consolidate its position as a global player.
The focus will be on AI-supported product development and on strengthening the Markt-Pilot team. Markt-Pilot relied on the law firm Luther, which supported the round with its well-known VC expert Thomas Kuhnle and tax expert Zacharias Schneider.
