Traction & achievements

So far, we have achieved significant milestones, including the successful development and piloting of our prototype systems in key projects like the Hellinikon mega project in Athens, Greece, the construction of the new engineering facility of Aegean Airlines at the El. Venizelos International airport, various manufacturing facility construction projects as well as public entity projects. Our journey has been characterized by rigorous testing, continuous improvement, and successful deployments that underscore our commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. Our prototypes have undergone extensive field testing, with some units deployed in real-world projects for periods extending up to 18 months. This long-term deployment strategy has been crucial in demonstrating the resilience and effectiveness of our devices under varied environmental conditions and operational demands. These extended trials have helped us fine-tune our technology, ensuring that each iteration of our products is more robust, efficient, and user-friendly than the last. Our devices have captured detailed, high-quality time-lapse videos of entire construction processes, providing our clients with invaluable insights into daily operations, progress tracking, and resource management. These videos have not only aided project managers in maintaining timelines and budgets but have also served as engaging visual summaries for stakeholders and investors.

Team & Why Us

Our team's expertise is diverse, combining decades of experience in multimedia, programming, video, and 3D animation as well as the construction industry. The founder Konstantinos Souvatzoglou has 15 years of experience as a Technical Director at Greece's largest film distribution company, Audiovisual. He was also the Director of Video and Advertising at Power Media Productions, bringing in-depth industry knowledge on multimedia, branding and marketing. Another key member is Konstantinos Pialoglou, a highly experienced developer who is the architect of the back-end infrastructure of the project. Each member plays a critical role, from product development to market strategy implementation, ensuring that every aspect of the business is driven by expertise and a commitment to excellence. The growth potential of our venture is substantial, driven by the rising demand for smart construction monitoring and the burgeoning development of new sustainable cities in the Middle East. We aim to cement our presence in Greece and expand into the Middle Eastern market, aligning with their Vision 2030 infrastructure goals.

Funding Needs

As a result of a 5 year R&D period and a significant active project pipeline, LONGLAPSE rightfully seeks a seed funding of 200Κ € to scale up operations and expand to Europe and the GCC area where mega city projects take place and the demand for monitoring systems is huge.
