"The support from the Singapore ecosystem has been a strong factor in our growth so far, and we are very excited and grateful to have SGInnovate onboard in this next stage of our journey. Over the past year, we have seen rapid growth in market demand for robotics and a very active expansion among our existing customers from initial deployment to large scale rollouts. With this growth of robotics adoption, our ability to integrate and orchestrate a multi-vendor fleet of robots has become a game changer. We strongly believe the next frontier of robotics won't be in just making smarter robots, but building intelligent systems that can orchestrate different robots together more effectively," said Rahul Nambiar, CEO and Co-Founder of Botsync. "SGInnovate is excited to support Botsync in this next phase of growth. Their approach to robotics automation addresses real and urgent industry needs, and Botsync exemplifies how home-grown deep tech companies can scale regionally to deliver meaningful impact. We look forward to supporting their continued expansion across APAC and beyond," said Hsien-Hui Tong, Executive Director - Investments, SGInnovate. Botsync's long-term ambition seeks to establish SyncOS(TM) as the essential orchestration layer for any enterprise looking to automate industrial operations at scale. As it works towards achieving this goal, the company is looking to forge more partnerships with technical solution providers and system integrators within the manufacturing and logistics industry.

SG robotics startup Botsync secure SGInnovate funding. Botsync, a Singapore-based robotics automation company specializing in autonomous mobile robots and vendor-agnostic automation orchestration, has received additional funding from SGInnovate as part of its extended series A round. Botsync has expanded operations into Australia and South Africa through partnerships, and entered the US market via a collaboration with SK International. Botsync's customers include global corporations such as Ford, Caterpillar, Kimberly Clark, Coca Cola, Aquaporin, and Nestle. The company said it will use the new funds to develop its SyncOS platform, enhance AI analytics and optimization capabilities, optimize its MAG AMRs, and expand its presence in Southeast Asia, India, Australia, New Zealand, and the US through strategic partnerships. Food for thought. Botsync's growth comes from existing customers; new-customer traction not disclosed. * Botsync is Singapore-based and builds autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) plus vendor-agnostic orchestration software (able to work across multiple robot brands). It logged 240% growth in production trips (completed robot missions in live deployments) and 230% revenue growth, driven by expansion of existing customers 1. * It cites deployments with Ford, Caterpillar, and Nestle 1. The update does not state the customer count or whether the $5.2 million Series A 2 plus SGInnovate's extension can fund moves in Southeast Asia and India. The plan also covers Australia plus New Zealand (ANZ) plus the US. * The vendor-agnostic pitch fits enterprises with mixed fleets. The update leaves out how Botsync stacks up against other orchestration providers, so defensibility beyond current accounts stays unclear. Integrators and WMS vendors can use Botsync's orchestration layer. * Botsync wants "partnerships with technical solution providers and system integrators in manufacturing and logistics" 1. System integrators (SIs) design and deploy tech for factories and warehouses. They can resell or co-deploy SyncOS. * Warehouse management system (WMS) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) vendors can plug into SyncOS, which offers "pre-built integration with major robotic and automation products" 2. That enables a single control plane (a single interface to monitor and manage heterogeneous systems) without building in-house orchestration. * For investors, 130% average year-over-year growth across three years 2 plus wins in fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and automotive could draw industrial automation groups seeking orchestration software plus Asia-Pacific reach. How would you feel if you could no longer use Tech in Asia?
