Bota Systems completed a $2.5 million seed funding round, led by Marathon Venture Capital, with participation from angel investors. This strategic investment enables the startup to scale up production and address the growing demand for robots that have the sense of touch.
Zurich-based startup Bota Systems builds robots that have a sense of touch, opening doors to new capabilities and tasks. Their platform, built on advanced in-house developed force torque sensors with integrated electronics and proprietary AI, provides robotic arms with flexibility and adaptability. This technology enables robots to perform tasks like polishing complex surfaces, assembling delicate parts, and engaging in interactive tasks. Bota Systems is also making strides in telepresence of humans through humanoid robots, teaching tasks like sanding and grinding through hand-guided interaction, among other applications.
Bota Systems serves more than 100 customers in over 30 countries and collaborates with a network of more than 10 distributors and robotic integrators across EMEA, Americas, and Asia-Pacific. To meet the rising demand from leading research labs and manufacturing companies worldwide, the $2.5 million, raised in the seed investment round, presented an important step forward for Bota Systems.
The seed round was led by Marathon Venture Capital, a seed-stage venture capital fund helping ambitious Greek founders build world-class technology companies. With over 100 million Euros in capital raised, Marathon is the first investor in fast-growing startups. Klajd Lika, CEO of Bota Systems, stated "We are on a mission to give robots the sense of touch and we keep being amazed to see how many different use cases our platform is serving across geographies and sectors. We decided to double down our efforts to serve more leading customers globally and further accelerate our ambitious product roadmap".
