RE-TEC Solutions, a South African prop-tech firm, has received a strategic investment from the REdimension Real Estate Technology and Sustainability Fund, which is advised by REdimension Capital.

The firm announced the new capital injection today, stating that the investment from REdimension represents a critical milestone for RE-TEC.

The funding allows the company to accelerate platform development and strengthen its expansion strategy in South Africa and selected global markets.
