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

Odaily News: German robotics startup Neura Robotics is in the process of raising approximately 1 billion euros (about 1.2 billion US dollars) in funding. Stablecoin issuer Tether Holdings SA is participating 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 rounds to follow.

Neura Robotics is headquartered in Metzingen, Germany. Its current product offerings include factory transport robots and robotic arm devices for home use. The company's CEO, David Reger, previously stated that the company's order volume last year approached 1 billion US dollars, 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 the latest move by Tether to continue expanding beyond its crypto business. Previously, Tether has invested in brain-computer interface company Blackrock Neurotech and Italian robotics startup Generative Bionics.
