Graphein, the highest quality provider of topography, 3D scanning, and cadastral services on the Romanian market, today announced a strategic minority investment from Cascada Investments, a provider of private capital solutions in Romania. The financing will support organic growth and acquisitions on the local market while continuing the integration of digital services.
The investment follows Graphein’s 140% growth in turnover during 2022.

“We desired a new financial and strategic partner with relevant experience at the local and international levels,” said Eugen Ursu, CEO and co-founder of Graphein. “Attracting an investment partner provided access to capital, strategic guidance, and operational expertise. We found a match with Cascada Investments, particularly for their ability to help develop the management team throughout the divisions in which Graphein operates. Over the next period, we will become leaders in implementing Autodesk Construction Cloud solutions on the Romanian market and be recognized as integrators of Building Information Modeling in the construction and infrastructure industries.”
