Nodes & Links, a Cyprus-based AI startup, has secured $12 million in Series B funding to address the global construction industry’s productivity crisis, which is valued at $12 trillion. The company’s flagship platform, powered by agentic AI, integrates siloed data, automates reporting, and provides real-time insights, enabling teams to proactively manage large-scale projects. The platform predicts risks and surfaces critical information instantly, allowing project managers to focus on solutions rather than data analysis.
Trusted By Industry Leaders
Already trusted by international companies such as AECOM, Turner & Townsend, Costain, Laing O’Rourke, and Intel, the Nodes & Links platform is revolutionizing project management across the sector. The Series B funding, led by ETF Partners, will support the company’s international growth, including expanding its presence in Europe and the US.

Transforming Construction With AI
Greg Lawton, CEO of Nodes & Links, commented on the funding, emphasizing the industry’s inefficiencies: “Construction is a backbone of modern life, but it’s plagued by inefficiencies and outdated processes. Our AI flips the script, enabling teams to anticipate challenges, make smarter decisions, and deliver on time and budget.” The platform has already demonstrated its effectiveness on projects, such as a data center collaboration with Turner & Townsend, where it automated program management tasks and delivered actionable insights in seconds, reducing what would have traditionally taken days.
Smarter, Greener, And Faster Projects
Beyond improving productivity, Nodes & Links’ platform focuses on sustainability by helping teams monitor and reduce embodied carbon throughout the project lifecycle. This enables companies to align their growth with environmental goals. AECOM, a global leader in engineering and infrastructure management, has adopted the platform to advance its sustainability objectives. Richard Newey, Project Controls Director at AECOM, praised the platform for helping teams unlock tailored predictive insights that drive more efficient and environmentally friendly outcomes.
Unlocking Construction’s Potential
While other industries like manufacturing and logistics have embraced advanced technologies, the construction sector has lagged. Nodes & Links is changing that by making AI practical and scalable for construction teams. Lucy Rands, Partner at ETF Partners, highlighted the company’s approach: “It’s not about abstract solutions—it’s about addressing the specific challenges holding the industry, and our world, back.”
With this funding, Nodes & Links plans to expand its AI capabilities, grow its reach in high-demand sectors like infrastructure and data centers, and solidify its position as the go-to AI solution for construction teams worldwide. Greg Lawton concluded: “The construction industry has the potential to shape the future. With the right tools, that future looks brighter, more sustainable, and far more productive.”
