syte

syte 2021 was founded by the architect Matthias Zühlke and the mathematician David Nellessen. Matthias developed an interest in linking digitalisation and architecture early on. As an architect and partner at Maas und Partner Architekten, he deepened his sense for the need to digitally optimize processes. Together with the other managing architects Pascal and Michael Maas, he has "manually" optimized building law for many investors for many years, and development in accordance with §34 in particular has been regularly optimized. Both partners, Michael and Pascal Maas are also initiators and investors in the first phase of syte. Thus, syte benefits from decades of experience in this complex topic. The idea for syte brought him together with David, who as a serial founder (Familonet, among others) has experience with the feasibility and implementation of technically demanding product ideas. The start-up has now grown to 15 employees.
