## About

Based in Germany, and founded in 2021, Phytonics GmbH operates as a solar panel reflective coating firm. The company is a spin-off of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), and it was founded by its CEOs, Ruben Hünig and Moritz Luck. In January 2023, Phytonics GmbH raised seed funding from EIT InnoEnergy, High-Tech Gründerfonds, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and individual investors.
