Foun\u00added at the end of 2016, the start-up from Munich-Gr\u00fcn\u00adwald has deve\u00adlo\u00adped an augmen\u00adted reality (AR) system that signi\u00adfi\u00adcantly impro\u00adves effi\u00adci\u00adency in produc\u00adtion in the phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal and biotech indus\u00adtries, as well as enab\u00adling considera\u00adble cost savings. Goodly Inno\u00adva\u00adtions plans to use the Series A round funding to further deve\u00adlop its product and expand commercialization.<\/p>\n Goodly Inno\u00adva\u00adtions\u2019 augmen\u00adted reality system, called Opti\u00adworX, is used in the phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal and biotech indus\u00adtries for produc\u00adtion proces\u00adses that are down\u00adstream of active ingre\u00addi\u00adent manu\u00adfac\u00adtu\u00adring. Here, compa\u00adnies face the chall\u00adenge that opera\u00adting equip\u00adment \u2014 for exam\u00adple, in the pack\u00ada\u00adging of active ingre\u00addi\u00adents \u2014 often has to be taken out of service due to main\u00adten\u00adance or retro\u00adfit\u00adting. As a result, produc\u00adtion is stop\u00adped. Depen\u00adding on the comple\u00adxity of a machine, these down\u00adti\u00admes amount to up to 50 percent and cause considera\u00adble costs. The Goodly solu\u00adtion is based on mature tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgies and is alre\u00adady successfully used by seve\u00adral inter\u00adna\u00adtio\u00adnal phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal compa\u00adnies. Here, it ensu\u00adres grea\u00adter effi\u00adci\u00adency and faster problem solving by visually guiding machine users through the chan\u00adgeo\u00adver or main\u00adten\u00adance process using augmen\u00adted reality glas\u00adses. Any number of people can colla\u00adbo\u00adrate on any number of end devices. To date, Opti\u00adworX is the only system to offer this multi-user, multi-device colla\u00adbo\u00adra\u00adtion for large indus\u00adtrial manu\u00adfac\u00adtu\u00adring and pack\u00ada\u00adging faci\u00adli\u00adties. The plat\u00adform is desi\u00adgned as a modu\u00adlar, vendor-inde\u00adpen\u00addent system. It enables fast, custo\u00admi\u00adzed setup and inte\u00adgra\u00adtion into virtually any produc\u00adtion environment.<\/p>\n Dr. Georg Ried, Mana\u00adging Direc\u00adtor of Bayern Kapi\u00adtal<\/strong>, says: \u201cGoodly Inno\u00adva\u00adtions has deve\u00adlo\u00adped a product that uses augmen\u00adted reality to solve a funda\u00admen\u00adtal problem in the phar\u00admaceu\u00adti\u00adcal and biotech indus\u00adtries.

Combi\u00adned with the expe\u00adri\u00adence of the foun\u00adding team, these are good prere\u00adqui\u00adsi\u00adtes for estab\u00adli\u00adshing the system as a stan\u00addard in a large market.\u201d<\/p>\n Robert Hoff\u00admeis\u00adter, Co-Foun\u00adder and CEO of Goodly Inno\u00adva\u00adtions, states: \u201cThanks to the finan\u00adcing round, we can acce\u00adle\u00adrate the further expan\u00adsion of Opti\u00adworX for the biopharma sector, both with addi\u00adtio\u00adnal product features and with grea\u00adter inter\u00adna\u00adtio\u00adnal presence. We last saw produc\u00adti\u00advity leaps and quality impro\u00adve\u00adments on this scale in the auto\u00admo\u00adtive indus\u00adtry 30 years ago. With Opti\u00adworX, we are helping employees to unlock up to 50 percent produc\u00adti\u00advity reser\u00adves through the use of state-of-the-art and intui\u00adtive technology.\u201d<\/p>\n Alex\u00adan\u00adder Ullmann, Invest\u00adment Mana\u00adger at BayBG, says: \u201cWith Opti\u00adworX, Goodly opti\u00admi\u00adzes produc\u00adtion proces\u00adses and mini\u00admi\u00adzes plan\u00adned and unplan\u00adned plant down\u00adtime and chan\u00adgeo\u00adver times.
