Investment Overview

Tether has invested €70 million in Generative Bionics, a funding round supporting the industrial deployment of intelligent humanoid robots.

The company is the largest spinoff from the Italian Institute of Technology and integrates over 20 years of robotics R&D, including 60 humanoid prototypes and a team of 70 engineers and AI scientists.

Project Scope and Timeline

The investment will fund the development of Physical AI systems, a dedicated production facility, and edge AI integrations across logistics, healthcare, and manufacturing. Generative Bionics’ first robot will debut at CES 2026 in Las Vegas.

Strategic Rationale

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, stated that the company is backing technologies that expand human potential and reduce reliance on centralized systems. The deal follows Tether’s previous investments in advanced neurotechnology and its 20,000-GPU AI compute network built with Northern Data and Rumble.

Market Outlook

The global humanoid robotics market is expected to exceed €200 billion by 2035, with projections reaching over €5 trillion by 2050 as industries adopt AI-driven automation at scale.
