Самостоятельный робот завершил финансирование в 1 миллиард юаней, инвестировали ByteDance, Meituan и Alibaba

【BlockBeat】The embodied intelligence track has seen major developments recently. X² (Variable Robot) just officially announced the completion of a 1 billion yuan A++ round of financing, with funding from a star-studded investor lineup including ByteDance, Sequoia China, Beijing Information Industry Development Fund, Deeptech Fund, Nanshan Strategic Emerging Industry Investment Fund, Xi Innovation Fund, and other leading institutions joining forces.

There are two interesting details behind this financing announcement. First, this is the first investment since the establishment of Deeptech Fund’s AI fund, indicating their high confidence in this company. Second, and more importantly, is X²’s status in the internet tech giant financing circle — in addition to ByteDance, they have previously received investments from both Meituan and Alibaba. In China’s embodied intelligence sector, there are almost no enterprises that have gained the attention of all three internet giants simultaneously. X²’s achievement in this regard is indeed rare. This perhaps suggests that the embodied intelligence track is transitioning from the periphery to the mainstream, with major tech companies all wanting to secure early positioning.
