ETH spin-off goNEON Agentic Systems has secured €160,000 (CHF150,000) in funding from Venture Kick to accelerate the development of its agentic AI platform for infrastructure planning.

The funding comes as infrastructure planning continues to face significant efficiency challenges. The sector still relies on manual engineering workflows, disconnected software, and time-intensive analyses. As projects become more complex and budgets tighter, evaluating multiple design alternatives remains a slow and resource-intensive process.

goNEON addresses these challenges with an AI-powered platform that automatically generates infrastructure designs based on engineering requirements, local regulations, and real-world constraints. Rather than replacing engineers, the platform supports decision-making by rapidly generating technically feasible planning options, enabling teams to assess and refine projects in a fraction of the time required by traditional methods.

By allowing engineers to generate and evaluate infrastructure scenarios in minutes instead of weeks, the platform enables planning teams to explore significantly more design alternatives while maintaining engineering standards and regulatory compliance.
