Nodes & Links Raises $12M Series B to Expand AI-Powered Construction Project Management Platform
Nodes & Links, a London-based artificial intelligence company focused on modernizing project management in the construction sector, has raised $12 million in a Series B funding round as it looks to accelerate international expansion and deepen adoption of its AI-driven platform among large enterprises.
The round was led by ETF Partners, a European venture capital firm known for backing companies that combine technology with sustainability and operational efficiency. ETF Partners was joined by SFC Capital and Uncorrelated Ventures, along with existing investors who participated in the financing. The fresh capital brings Nodes & Links additional resources to scale its operations, particularly across Europe and North America, while continuing to invest in product development.
Founded in 2018 by Greg Lawton and Dr. Christos Ellinas, Nodes & Links has built an enterprise AI platform designed to automate and simplify complex project planning and delivery processes. The company focuses on industries where large-scale projects are common and inefficiencies are costly, including construction, infrastructure, energy, aerospace, and defense. Its technology applies machine learning to tasks such as schedule analysis, risk identification, reporting, and compliance, allowing teams to move away from manual, time-intensive workflows.
Nodes & Links positions its software as a form of vertical AI, tailored specifically to the realities of project-based industries rather than general productivity use cases. By automating processes that traditionally take days or weeks, the platform aims to help organizations make faster decisions, reduce administrative burden, and improve transparency across complex projects. According to the company, this shift enables project leaders to focus more on strategic oversight rather than on document management and manual data reconciliation.
The Series B funding is expected to support Nodes & Links’ push into the US market, where demand for advanced project management tools is growing amid large-scale infrastructure investment and increasing pressure to deliver projects on time and within budget. The company also plans to use the capital to grow its commercial and engineering teams, enhance its AI capabilities, and expand partnerships with major enterprise clients.
ETF Partners’ investment reflects its broader focus on companies that drive productivity gains and support more sustainable outcomes. Construction and infrastructure projects are widely seen as areas where improved planning and execution can significantly reduce waste, cost overruns, and delays. By embedding AI into core project workflows, Nodes & Links aims to address long-standing structural inefficiencies in a sector valued in the trillions of dollars globally.
SFC Capital’s participation underscores continued interest from early-stage and growth investors in applied AI solutions that tackle real-world operational challenges. Uncorrelated Ventures, which specializes in backing technically ambitious software companies, adds further depth to the investor group, bringing experience in scaling enterprise technology businesses.
In recent years, Nodes & Links has reported growing adoption of its platform by organizations managing complex, high-value projects. The company says its software has helped teams automate repetitive tasks, identify risks earlier in the project lifecycle, and generate clearer, more actionable insights for stakeholders. These capabilities have become increasingly important as project timelines tighten and regulatory requirements grow more demanding.
As competition intensifies among AI startups targeting traditional industries, Nodes & Links is betting that deep domain focus and enterprise-grade tooling will set it apart. With its latest funding round, the company enters its next phase of growth with a strengthened balance sheet and a clear mandate to scale globally.
The Series B marks a significant step for Nodes & Links as it seeks to embed artificial intelligence at the core of how complex projects are planned and delivered, positioning the company to play a larger role in the digital transformation of construction and infrastructure worldwide.
