🤖 Thrilled to back Ziad Khoury, Roch Molléro and the team at Gobano Robotics in their mission to automate the most delicate industrial and logistics tasks. By combining next-gen AI (imitation learning, reinforcement learning, world models) with mature robotics hardware, Gobano enables robotic arms to perform fine-grained manipulation once only possible for humans: picking, folding, screwing, assembling, handling soft or variable-shaped materials… The company just raised a €3M pre-seed round to accelerate R&D and kick off its first industrial deployments. Proud to be on board alongside Axeleo Capital (AXC), Bpifrance Digital Venture, Polytechnique Ventures, Motier Ventures, Plug and Play Tech Center, and several European angels and micro-VCs. #robotics #AI #deeptech #industry40 #futureofwork

🚀 Excited to back Alpic fresh off their $6M pre-seed round! AI agents are reshaping how we use the internet. With MCP becoming the standard, businesses will need infrastructure built for agents — not adapted from human UIs. That’s exactly what the Alpic team is building: the first MCP-native cloud platform, enabling developers to deploy secure, reliable servers to agents in just minutes. We’re proud to support repeat founders Pierre-Louis Theron, Erica Beavers, Nikolay Rodionov, Frédéric Barthelet and Charles Sonigo alongside our friends at Partech, K5 Global, Irregular Expressions, Yellow, Drysdale Ventures, and Galion.exe. 👉 Congrats team, and welcome to the Kima family! #AI #Infrastructure #KimaFamily

With AI, shopping should become instant and seamless. Congrats Antoine Grimal, Louis Pinsard and team!
