German Robotics Startup Neura Raises Approximately 1 Billion Euros in Funding, Tether Participates

According to Odaily, German robotics startup Neura Robotics is in the process of raising approximately 1 billion euros (about 1.2 billion USD) in funding. Stablecoin issuer Tether Holdings SA participated in the investment, which will be used to develop AI-driven humanoid robots. This funding round values the company at around 4 billion euros, with the possibility of further financing in the future.

Headquartered in Metzingen, Germany, Neura Robotics currently sells products including factory transport robots and robotic arm devices for households. The company's CEO, David Reger, previously stated that the company's order volume last year approached 1 billion USD, with customers including Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries and Omron. In January 2025, the company completed a 120 million euro funding round led by Lingotto Investment Management, a subsidiary of Exor.

This investment is Tether's latest move to continue expanding beyond its cryptocurrency business. Previously, Tether has invested in brain-computer interface company Blackrock Neurotech and Italian robotics startup Generative Bionics.
