Microagi, a robotics AI startup founded in 2025, announced a partnership with Google Cloud and NVIDIA to train customized embodied AI models for industrial robots using the Blackwell GPU platform. The company raised $55 million in seed funding—Germany's largest seed round—after only five days of fundraising, with Google Cloud engineers helping optimize computational efficiency by roughly doubling it while reducing energy consumption. The partnership enables microagi to deploy task-specific robotics systems faster and expands its ability to serve European manufacturers with on-premises compute infrastructure under GDPR compliance.
