Semodia GmbH, a German startup founded in 2019 by Anna Menschner, Henry Bloch, Stephan Hensel, and Jan Funke, is carving a niche in semantic modelling for automation. With the collective expertise of its founders, who boast four years of academic research in modularization of process plants, the company is making significant strides in the Process Industrie 4.0 landscape.
Semodia identified a critical gap in automation solutions for modular process plants while working on the Module Type Package (MTP) standardization with industry bodies such as NAMUR, ZVEI, and VDI. The startup developed a controller-independent MTP-Generator, an MTP-Editor, and solutions adaptable for laboratories, addressing key industry challenges.
The company's progress attracted a €2.00M Series A investment on 01 April 2023 from TGFS, underscoring investor confidence in their innovative approach to automation. Headquartered in Germany, Semodia is well-positioned to advance automation in the process industry.
