The Rochelaise company Shark Robotics (4.6 M€ of turnover in 2021) manufacturer of robots for fire safety, nuclear, defense or even space, has just completed a fundraising of ten million euros. It was carried out with the European fund Move Capital Fund I, managed by the financial group Kepler Chevreux. “This financing will enable Shark Robotics to strengthen its position as market leader by increasing its R&D investments, accelerating its internationalization, already initiated through its subsidiary Shark Asia, and improving its production tool”, specifies the young company (created in 2016) in a press release. More than a hundred robots have already been delivered to 15 countries, including the Colossus model, which intervened during the fire at Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. “Furthermore, this fundraising will contribute to reindustrialization and the creation of jobs with high added value”, specifies the founder and CEO of the company, Cyril Kabbara.
