Sample material in less than two minutes at a resolution of up to 1,200 dpi and provide the results
ready as physically precise digital assets for fashion, footwear, automotive and furniture. With
PhysX™ has developed Vizoo's first interoperable physics database for 3D simulation, which
enables companies to determine the behavior of materials in digital product development
to simulate exactly.
There is continuous research and development work behind both products: on new
scanning methods, material data standards, physical simulation models and integration
Interfaces with leading 3D software partners such as Browzwear, TUKATECH, and Centric
software. Since 2013, Vizoo has been developing technologies for workflows that were available at the time of Development hasn't even existed yet.
The challenge
Vizoo is constantly investing in the development of its technology. The company had
Although previous experience with ZIM funding projects, it was uncharted territory when it came to the research allowance.
The technical preparation of R&D activities requires specific know-how, which
does not exist in the day-to-day business of a growing deep tech company.
In particular, the structuring of work packages, the allocation of personnel costs and

represents a challenge.
Working with re:fund
The collaboration began with the first project and has since developed into a
developed a lasting partnership. Three projects have been worked on together so far.
A decisive factor of the partnership was the customer-focused way of working at re:fund
teams. Instead of forcing Vizoo into a rigid system, Elisabeth Teske took over
Preparation of documents directly from the formats that Vizoo uses in everyday life: Word
Documents, running text, emails. No additional effort for the customer, full control when re:funding
team.
The human quality of the collaboration was particularly positive. Kurze
Response times, direct communication, and a team that understands how
technology-driven company works.
The result
All proposed projects were approved. Vizoo consistently creates the entire
Funding potential off: Project one is completed, project two is ongoing and the third
Project is already in progress. What began as new territory is now an established process with
a funding amount of 100,000€.
And the referral signal is clear: Vizoo actively recommends re:fund.
”If I have someone in the industry who doesn't do it yet or still
does not have a research allowance partner, I would like to recommend that.”
