Introduction
As businesses scale, facilities management becomes an increasingly complex yet critical element of their operations.
One company is reshaping facility management in this dynamic field: Infraspeak, a Portuguese tech startup, recently secured €18 million ($19.5 million) in Series B funding.
The company aims to empower facility managers worldwide with a seamless, all-in-one platform.
Founded in 2015, Infraspeak has attracted big-name clients like KFC, Intercontinental, and Primark by providing a centralized digital solution that brings every aspect of facilities management into a collaborative workspace.
The Infraspeak Advantage: A Unified Platform for Facility Management
Infraspeak’s core offering is its Infraspeak Network, a digital workspace that centralizes all facilities management activities and integrates various stakeholders.
Imagine a healthcare facility where numerous departments, complex systems, and service providers must coordinate perfectly.
Traditionally, this level of coordination required spreadsheets, manual tracking, and disparate systems, making it prone to errors and inefficiency.
“Managing all these moving parts is challenging, and the stakes are quite high,” explains Felipe Ávila da Costa, CEO and co-founder of Infraspeak.
“Our platform allows facilities teams to manage everything cohesively, from maintenance schedules and air quality management to contractor communication and service level agreements (SLAs), while ensuring health and safety compliance.”
Infraspeak’s Network enables facility managers to oversee internal operations— building maintenance and cleaning—and external partnerships with service providers.
This real-time collaboration feature reduces miscommunication and bottlenecks by allowing all parties to share data, track work orders, and monitor performance seamlessly.
Rising Demand and Market Expansion
Despite the surge in remote work, demand for Infraspeak’s solution remains high.
Companies still rely on physical spaces—shopping malls, hospitals, airports, and factories—to operate efficiently.
According to Ávila da Costa, remote work has increased the importance of cloud-based facilities management software.
Such technology allows operational managers to monitor multiple facilities from anywhere, optimizing resources and ensuring compliance with new health standards.
“Remote work made facilities management software more essential, as it allows managers to control and monitor multiple sites without needing to be on-site continuously,” adds da Costa.
Infraspeak’s competitors in the facilities management software space, including MaintainX, Upkeep, and Facilio, highlight a growing interest in digital transformation for facilities.
With this latest funding, Infraspeak is expanding its workforce by 100, with new C-level positions like Chief Revenue Officer to support further expansion in Europe, South America, and Africa.
Key Market Drivers: Sustainability and Technological Complexity
As facilities become more complex and regulated, sustainability goals and compliance with ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) drive companies to seek optimized solutions.
Today, buildings contain unprecedented smart devices and require extensive data management to ensure cost efficiency, transparency, and regulatory compliance.
Infraspeak’s centralized platform meets this need by providing precise, trackable data across all facilities, which companies can use to meet their sustainability and operational objectives.
| Factors Driving Facilities Management Demand | Infraspeak’s Solution |
|---|---|
| Complex facilities with advanced systems | Real-time tracking and collaboration |
| Sustainability and ESG compliance | Centralized data for efficient reporting |
| Remote work’s impact on facilities management | Cloud-based access for remote operations |
| Increased cost-efficiency and transparency needs | Integrated platform connecting all stakeholders |
The Road Ahead: Entering New Markets
Currently, Europe remains Infraspeak’s primary focus, but with an expanding presence in South America and a few clients in the U.S., global expansion is on the horizon.
Endeit Capital led Series B funding with support from Bright Pixel Capital, Caixa Capital, Innovation Nest, and Indico Capital Partners, setting the stage for a Series C round in 2025 to support potential U.S. market entry.
Conclusion
Infraspeak is setting a new standard in facilities management by making it streamlined, sustainable, and collaborative.
As the company scales, it is well-positioned to address the global demand for a comprehensive, efficient approach to managing facilities in various sectors.
With its latest funding, expanding workforce, and pioneering digital solutions, Infraspeak is innovating facilities management and transforming how businesses maintain and optimize their physical spaces worldwide.
