The new capital will support the company\u2019s global expansion, strengthen its product roadmap and scale deployments across semiconductor, aerospace and other high-precision industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spacetek develops advanced time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) systems designed to analyze gas composition in real time, allowing manufacturers to optimize processes, reduce waste and improve yields. Originally rooted in aerospace engineering, the company\u2019s proprietary SPACE DNA design philosophy focuses on reliability, low maintenance and performance under mission-critical conditions. Spacetek\u2019s systems are already in use at several of the world\u2019s most advanced semiconductor fabrication sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Technology Fund\u2019s investment decision followed an extensive due-diligence process confirming both the environmental and operational benefits of Spacetek\u2019s technology. According to the company, customers using its real-time metrology platform have already achieved measurable CO\u2082 reductions and significant efficiency gains, underscoring the role of metrology as a strategic enabler in advanced manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are entering the most critical phase of growth,\u201d said Maximilian Rothenberger, CEO of Spacetek Technology AG. \u201cThis financing enables us to accelerate global deployments, expand our technology roadmap and support an industry increasingly reliant on precise, clean and efficient process control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pushing technological limits<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As demand increases for nanometer-level precision and sustainable production in semiconductor manufacturing, metrology solutions such as Spacetek\u2019s are becoming essential infrastructure for next-generation fabrication lines. Beyond the cleanroom, the company is also extending its TOF-MS technology into high-reliability applications for European and U.S. space programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To support its development, Spacetek has strengthened its leadership team with three senior appointments: Samuel Rensing as Chief Operating Officer, Dr. Niklas Ermann as Chief Technology Officer and Gunnar Schr\u00f6der as Chief Commercial Officer. Their combined expertise across high-tech operations, deeptech R&amp;D and global sales will support the company\u2019s next growth phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Board Chairman Christian Studer noted that the financing marks a significant milestone for the company. \u201cWe are proud to support a team pushing technological limits while delivering tangible environmental impact.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bernese deeptech company Spacetek Technology AG has raised CHF 9.6 million to scale its space-inspired time-of-flight mass
