🚀 UK-based Didimi raises for its #digitaltwin and information management platform for the construction industry. The round was led by the leading deep tech VC the Creator Fund.
Didimi was founded in 2023 by two ex-Palantir engineers, Dr. Kyriakos Kantarakias and Alexander Gillies, as well as Ioannis Brilakis, who is the Laing O’Rourke Professor of Civil and Information Engineering at the University of Cambridge. The company was is a spin-off from the University of Cambridge.
“At Creator Fund we believe in backing PhD and academic founders from day 1. We have known Kyriakos for a number of years and are thrilled to now lead Didimi’s pre-seed. Didimi’s team combines Kyriakos’ and Alex’s ambition and talent and Prof. Brilakis’s world renowned expertise in the digital twin space. Their partnership with Cambridge University’s Digital Roads of the Future initiative provides a unique entry point to transform construction workflows as we know them.”
- Jamie Macfarlane, Founder and CEO of Creator Fund

Could we build greener with sustainable wood-based alternatives? 🪵
Concrete and steel dominate construction today. ⚒️
But to achieve global climate goals, carbon emissions from steel, cement, and concrete need to decrease by more than 90% by 2050. 📉
As Andres Baehr of Savia Ventures shared with us, wood has a specific strength in tension that is higher than steel, making it an ideal material for lightweight structural applications.
Combining biotech with wood allows biotech startups to maximise the strength of their components while minimising material consumption — a dream come true for the timber industry.
At scale, biotech enhanced wood could replace concrete, steel, aluminium, and plastics in construction by reducing weight, waste, and construction times.
And timber-based biocomposites, wood alternatives and salvaged wood all have a role to play in the materials of the future.

Mass timber has gotten a lot of attention in recent years 🪵
Sustainable wood-based alternatives could be the key to drastically reducing emissions in construction.
Biotech enhanced wood could replace concrete, steel, aluminum, and plastics in the built environment.
Buuuuut it’s not without its challenges.
