Zurich-based Enact Intelligence has raised a $30m pre-seed round from Redalpine, Notion Capital and Firstminute Capital to tackle one of robotics' biggest bottlenecks. The startup's leadership includes Yann LeCun and Arthur Mensch, who back the venture to advance robotics intelligence. The funding will accelerate development of foundational AI systems for robotic automation.
The company aims to solve critical challenges in robot perception and decision-making. Experts note the significance of LeCun's involvement, given his role at Meta AI. The startup plans to expand its team and refine its proprietary technology stack.
Industry observers see this as a vote of confidence in European AI innovation.
