RobotEra Raises Nearly RMB 1 Billion to Scale Humanoid Robot Production and Global Deployments

New updates have been reported about Robotera (PC:ROBOT)

RobotEra has raised close to RMB 1 billion (about USD 140 million) in a Series A+ round that materially strengthens its balance sheet and accelerates its scale-up in embodied-intelligence robotics. The financing, completed on November 20, 2025, is led by Geely Capital with strategic participation from BAIC Capital, and adds to an existing investor base that includes Alibaba Group and Haier Capital, signaling strong industrial and technology validation. Management plans to deploy the new capital into rapid iteration, mass production, and delivery across its three core product lines: full-size bipedal humanoid robots, full-size wheeled service robots, and dexterous robotic hands. Executives expect the entry of Geely and BAIC to create operating synergies in manufacturing, supply chain integration, and large-scale industrial and mobility use cases, positioning RobotEra to move from pilot deployments to broader commercialization.

Founded in August 2023, RobotEra focuses on general-purpose robots powered by embodied intelligence—systems that learn and adapt through interaction with the physical world—and has already achieved wide commercial adoption, counting nine of the world’s ten most valuable technology companies as customers. Its full-size humanoid platform has demonstrated advanced real-world capabilities, including autonomous walking on snow and world-record performance at the World Humanoid Robot Games, where it achieved a 1.47-meter long jump and a 95.64-centimeter high jump. The company’s XHAND 1 dexterous hand, built on a fully direct-drive architecture optimized for reinforcement learning, can manipulate more than 100 different tools and has become a standard research platform in leading embodied-intelligence labs worldwide, underpinning numerous peer-reviewed studies. Collectively, the financing and technology milestones position RobotEra to consolidate its role as a key infrastructure provider for next-generation robotics and to expand revenue through deeper penetration of enterprise, industrial, and research markets.
