Apptronik Raises Additional $53M in Series B Funding
Summary
The company intends to use the funds to accelerate the production and deployment of its AI-powered humanoid robot, Apollo, and support growing customer demand across key industries, including automotive, electronics manufacturing, third-party logistics, beverage bottling and fulfillment, and consumer packaged goods. Its robot, Apollo, is designed to collaborate thoughtfully with humans, initially in critical industries such as manufacturing and logistics, with future applications in healthcare, the home, and beyond. Apptronik and GoogleDeepMind announced a strategic partnership to build the next generation of humanoid robots. In the past 12 months, Apptronik secured foundational commercial engagements with industry leaders Mercedes-Benz and GXO and worked with NVIDIA to leverage Apollo in Omniverse digital twins. Last month, the company also announced a pilot engagement and strategic collaboration with Jabil to build Apollo humanoid robots and integrate them into Jabil’s manufacturing operations, paving the way for Apollo humanoid robots to build more humanoid robots.
