Foundry Robotics, founded in 2025 and based in Emeryville, California, is a dual-use contract manufacturer building an "Everything Factory": flexible robotic assembly cells driven by vision-language-action models that switch between products such as drones, robot dogs, battery packs and satellite components without retooling. Founder & CEO Adarsh Kulkarni was Head of Robotics at Scale AI; co-founder Emmanuel Lamacchia led Tesla's Model Y program.

Bloom is a Detroit-based manufacturing marketplace founded in 2023 that connects hardware companies — drones, robotics, e-bikes and scooters — with US-based suppliers and contract manufacturers. Its core product is now a set of supply chain AI agents that help customers find suppliers, parts, and manufacturing and engineering services.

Hadrian, founded in 2020 in Torrance, California, builds automated factories to manufacture precision parts for the aerospace and defense industries.

Huajiu (Shenzhen Huajiu Intelligent Link Co., Ltd.) integrates industrial software, original factory supply chain, and flexible manufacturing through full-chain intelligent manufacturing and digital services, serving over 8.5 million electronic engineers and 300,000 enterprise customers globally, with delivery cycles shortened by over 50%. It has launched AI EDA tools (KiCad Copilot / Huajiu Xiaozhuzhu) and intelligent DFM manufacturability analysis that deeply integrate large models, representing a general AI application-level investment target. It completed a Series C round in 2021 (led by Shunwei Capital) and a Series C++ round of 310 million yuan in 2024. This is a new Series D round.

Tianshu Yaoguang (Hangzhou) Computing Technology Co., Ltd. is registered in the Gongshu district of Hangzhou, Zhejiang, and runs an R&D centre in Beijing through an affiliated entity. It was founded in 2022 by Li Hua, a retired researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Computing Technology who directed that institute's Open Laboratory of Computer-Aided Design and Graphics from 1995 to 2000, together with Guo Rui and others; the team comes out of the CAD and computer-graphics groups at Beihang University and the CAS. The company is rebuilding a high-performance three-dimensional geometric kernel and the underlying algorithm libraries from the ground up, aiming to match or exceed mainstream commercial kernels such as Dassault's ACIS/CGM and Siemens' Parasolid on selected capabilities, and sells to industrial-software vendors serving high-end manufacturing.

Provides industrial intelligent robots, unmanned smart equipment, and digital-factory hardware and software to domestic heavy-industry customers in steel metallurgy, nonferrous metals, power, and mining machinery
