Beijing Tianxia Xianzhi Robot Technology Co., Ltd. (TianGong Robot) has completed a funding round of hundreds of millions of yuan, as announced on September 2. The round was led by Chuxin Capital, with participation from Matrix Partners China and Hefei state-owned capital. The company plans to use the proceeds primarily to scale up production of sorting robots, advance development and commercialization of humanoid-based sorting robots, and expand overseas market operations.
