German startup Neura Robotics has raised a $1.4bn Series C round from investors including crypto group Tether, Qualcomm, Amazon and Nvidia.

Founded in 2019, Neura builds “cognitive” robots capable of seeing, walking and manipulating objects.

The new funding brings Neura’s valuation to $7bn, the Financial Times reported, citing people familiar with the deal. Other investors in the new round include Bosch, Schaeffler and the European Investment Bank (EIB).

The company previously raised one of 2025’s largest robotics rounds, a €120m Series B announced from Lingotto Investment Management, Volvo Cars Tech Fund, Vsquared Ventures and HV Capital.

The company says it now has an order book of over $1bn.

Neura is part of a cohort of European robotics companies. The sector is seeing increased investor interest: Europe’s robotics companies raised a combined €1.6bn in 2025, up 110% from the €761m they secured in 2024. 

Neura, which is based in Metzingen, moved the majority of its production back from China to Germany in 2024 — in part to show confidence in Germany as a business location, and prove that Europe can spawn leading robotics companies.

The company’s founder, David Reger, told the FT that Neura’s short-term target is to increase production capacity for its robots from 6,000 robots this year to tens of thousands next year.
