Dawex co-founders and historical investor Banque des Territoires (Caisse des Dépôts group) has welcomed Nemetschek Group, reaffirming the strategic imperative of trusted AI data ecosystems for the construction sector and the economy as a whole.

Agentic AI is reshaping industries at an unprecedented pace, it requires trusted data sources and traceability of data exchanges. Data ecosystems have emerged as the trusted infrastructure to source, trace and audit the access to data and its exchange, with full security, compliance and governance.

The Nemetschek Group's investment in Dawex is a direct acknowledgement of the critical lever of data ecosystems for AEC/O stakeholders, where data exchange is the foundation of efficient collaboration, and the catalyst for Agentic AI, to deliver the next generation of productivity, operations and sustainability gains. By investing in Dawex, the Nemetschek Group, as the provider of intelligent, connected software solutions used throughout the entire building lifecycle, aims at accelerating the response to complex collaboration processes, ultimately supporting its customers by leading them into the future of digitalization.

For Dawex, this investment accelerates its growth trajectory, its global expansion, notably on the German market, and its capacity to serve the complex data exchange requirements of the construction sector. This relationship with Nemetschek also reinforces the industry credibility to drive adoption of trusted infrastructure for AI-Ready data ecosystems, at scale. This announcement confirms Dawex strategy and continued engagement in delivering the most advanced Data Exchange solutions to the 15+ sectors already addressed by the company globally.

“We see trusted, governed data exchange as a foundational layer for the next decade of innovation in AEC/O, from collaborative design to construction intelligence and future agentic AI workflows”, says Yves Padrines, CEO of the Nemetschek Group. “Dawex has already invested significantly in this vision and is taking a leading role in shaping the emerging European standardization initiative CEN trusted data transactions standard. By combining Dawex’s proven exchange infrastructure with Nemetschek’s leadership in Open BIM data and workflow collaboration, all players in the construction lifecycle will be able to govern their data as a strategic asset, fueling AI-driven insights and accelerating productivity, resilience and sustainability.”

Together, we will accelerate the creation of trusted, secure and standardized AI data ecosystems that the market urgently requires.” states Fabrice Tocco, Dawex Co-Founder. “As data spaces and data marketplaces scale to real-world deployments, fostering data collaboration requires organizations to break silos and ways of working. The proper technology to accelerate, streamline and secure data exchanges internally and externally, has become equally essential in an AI-powered world. This is exactly what Dawex provides”, added Laurent Lafaye, Dawex Co-Founder.

"Dawex has been building the foundational data exchange infrastructure for a sovereign and trusted economy since its inception.
