C2S2 tech start-up in Bonn receives seed financing

• High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF) invests in the six-figure range
• „Rulebook“-Platform is intended to revolutionize policy communication in companies
• Technology based on innovative linguistic approach

 

The Bonn-based tech start-up C2S2 from the EGRC area (Enterprise Governance, Risk and Compliance) has developed software that enables employees to easily access company regulations in a specific decision context. C2S2 digitizes existing company policies and guidelines and communicates them to employees via a dialogue platform, the “Rulebook”. The resulting competence and transparency helps companies and employees to avoid missconduct and minimize risks.

When it comes to business conduct rules in companies, many employees are often left on their own. Policies and guidelines are usually stored somewhere on the drive or in the intranet, many pages of regulations – unstructured, lengthy and prohibition-oriented,” explains Aram Kaven-Moser, founder and managing director of C2S2 GmbH, the problem. “With the “Rulebook”, policies and guidelines become practical instructions for day-to-day business – intuitive, application-oriented and mobile accessible”, continues Kaven-Moser. Together with Klaus-Michael Thelemann, COO, he now steers the company into the next development phase.

Target customers are large corporations from all industries, but C2S2 also offers solutions for small and medium-sized companies.

Daniela Bach, Investment Manager at HTGF responsible for C2S2: “Aram and his team have developed a unique product that addresses the high demand for contextual and legally compliant communication of company regulations. The experienced team has already successfully achieved the product market fit with several corporate customers. We look forward to supporting C2S2 now in entering the rapidly growing EGRC market”.
