Pre Seed · AI & Machine Learning · Berlin, Germany · 2–10 employees
Forgent develops AI agents that automate the public procurement process, helping companies efficiently find, apply for, and win public sector contracts in Europe's €2 trillion government contracting market. The Berlin-based startup raised €4.3 million in pre-seed funding led by Cherry Ventures in September 2025, with backing from notable angels including Charlie Songhurst (Meta board member) and experts from OpenAI, DeepMind, and Anthropic. The company addresses a significant pain point as nearly 40% of public tenders receive only one bid or none at all due to manual processes and fragmented systems. Founded by experienced entrepreneurs including Erik Heinelt (serial entrepreneur, two exits), Dr. Leonard Wossnig (former CTO LabGenius), and Dr. Timo Kuschma (Stanford-trained, led AI teams at QuantumBlack and Tecton).
