flag mimic Robotics raises $16M to develop AI-powered robotic hands for industrial use.

flag Zurich-based mimic Robotics, founded in 2024 as an ETH Zurich spin-off, raised $16 million in a seed round led by Elaia, bringing total funding to over $20 million. flag The company develops AI-driven robotic hands that learn from human demonstrations to perform complex industrial tasks in manufacturing, assembly, and logistics. flag Unlike full humanoid robots, mimic uses off-the-shelf robotic arms paired with dexterous hands for a more scalable, cost-effective solution. flag The technology is already being piloted with major global manufacturers and logistics firms, addressing labor shortages and supply chain challenges. flag The company aims to position Europe as a leader in general-purpose robotics, supported by Swiss innovation funding and AWS’s Generative AI Accelerator.
