iNSyT Technologies

iNSyT Technologies is a German deep-tech startup pioneering real-time nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy solutions. Spun out of the Nano-Institute at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) Munich in 2024, iNSyT is developing cutting-edge optical tools to visualize ultrafast processes at the nanoscale—enabling breakthroughs in materials science, quantum technology, and sustainable energy research.

The company’s core innovation is a novel, non-invasive microscopy platform capable of capturing dynamic phenomena with femtosecond temporal resolution and nanometer spatial resolution. This proprietary technology bridges a longstanding gap in the scientific instrumentation market, where existing solutions are either too slow, too destructive, or incompatible with sensitive quantum materials.

iNSyT’s mission is to equip researchers, semiconductor developers, and clean energy innovators with tools that reveal how light, heat, charge, and spin evolve in advanced materials—at the scale and speed where quantum and nanoscale effects occur. By enabling direct observation of dynamic material behavior, iNSyT helps accelerate the design of more efficient photovoltaics, quantum devices, and next-generation semiconductors.

Backed by the EXIST Forschungstransfer program funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK), the company combines strong academic roots with entrepreneurial ambition. iNSyT Technologies was named a top team in the 2025 Munich Business Plan Competition (Phase 1) and is actively building its first product prototype in close collaboration with academic and industrial partners.

Headquartered at LMU Munich’s Nano-Institute, iNSyT operates at the intersection of photonics, materials science, and applied quantum research. Its founding team consists of physicists and engineers with extensive experience in ultrafast optics, spectroscopy, and nanotechnology.

By transforming how we visualize processes at the smallest and fastest scales, iNSyT Technologies is opening a new window into material performance—and unlocking tools critical for the next wave of scientific and industrial innovation.
