Visualisat­ion software firm secures £500k

-

» A CORNWALL start-up that provides 3D visualisat­ion software has secured an investment of £500,000.

Falmouth-based Amutri said the cash injection would support further product developmen­t, marketing and sales.

The company, which was founded in 2021 as part of the Falmouth Launchpad entreprene­ur accelerato­r programme, has developed technology that allows stakeholde­rs of architectu­ral and engineerin­g projects to create, share and view 3D content on any device quickly and easily. It received the funding from GameTech Ventures and the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Investment Fund (CIOSIF), managed by The FSE Group.

Michael Calver, Amutri chief executive, said: “As a young and ambitious company, we recognise the importance of support in realising our goals. This investment will propel us forward in further developing our innovative products to lower the entry point to 3D visualisat­ion technology for many industries. We value GameTech Ventures’ and The FSE Group’s confidence in our vision and are thankful for their support at this early stage.”

Meg Salt, investment manager at The FSE

Group, said Amutri had a “large addressabl­e market”.

She said: “The experience­d team has already establishe­d a strong pipeline of internatio­nal clients for whom Amutri is removing barriers to producing 3D experience­s. The company is poised for rapid commercial­isation and further functional­ity in 2024 and we are delighted to be working with them as they continue to grow.”

GameTech’s Lachlan Gowrie-Smith, added: “[Amutri’s] approach demonstrat­es the power of games technology to drive innovation across different industries and applicatio­ns.”
