Cognibotics Secures €6.5 Million EIC Accelerator Funding for HKM1800 Robot Development
Cognibotics has been awarded €6.5 million from the EIC Accelerator to advance its HKM1800 robot platform for logistics and manufacturing. This funding aims to meet increasing automation demands in Europe, addressing labor shortages and energy efficiency.

Cognibotics, a Swedish robotics company, has secured €6.5 million in funding, including a €2.5 million grant and €4 million in equity, from the European Innovation Council under Horizon Europe. The funding will enable the development and industrialization of HKM1800, a new industrial robot that offers delta-class speed and a 10 times larger workspace while consuming one-third less energy than conventional robots.
The HKM1800 can perform over 2,000 picks per hour across a 10 square meter area, enhancing automation scalability. This project responds to Europe's rising demand for efficient industrial systems amidst labor shortages.
