Foxconn invests US$30 million in Robocore to expand into elderly care robotics market

  • By IPP Bureau | August 20, 2025

Robocore Technology Limited (Robocore), a partner company of Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTP), has announced the recent completion of its Series D funding.

As the world's largest precision electronics manufacturer, Foxconn Technology Co. (FTC), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Q-Run Holdings Limited, has made a strategic investment in Robocore's wholly-owned subsidiary RoboTemi Global Ltd. This investment marks FTC's official entry into the smart robotics market, bolstering its smart manufacturing and artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem, while paving the way for Robocore's future IPO.

Robocore Technology Limited has recently completed its Series D financing. Its wholly owned subsidiary, RoboTemi Global Ltd. (RoboTemi Global), received investment from Q-Run Holdings Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Foxconn Technology Co., Ltd. (FTC), one of the world’s largest precision electronics manufacturers.

The transaction involves a total potential investment of up to US$30 million from FTC, beginning with an initial US$10 million investment in preferred shares, acquiring a 6.6% equity stake in RoboTemi Global Ltd. The agreement also includes two subsequent investment tranches of US$10 million each, which may be exercised on the first and second anniversaries of the initial investment. Valuations for these tranches will be determined by mutual agreement or third-party assessment.

"This is more than a capital injection — it's an affirmation of our company's future prospects," said Roy Lim, CEO of Robocore Technology. "With world-leading manufacturing and supply chain capabilities, FTC will join forces with us to accelerate our growth, expand into new markets, and help us stride confidently toward our IPO milestone."

Eric Or, Acting Chief Operating Officer of HKSTP, said, "AI empowers Hong Kong's long-term economic development. HKSTP is pleased to see Robocore's rapid growth and global impact. Robocore's successful funding round not only signifies that a world-leading technology enterprise has endorsed its core robotics technology, but also proves that Hong Kong's tech ventures can firmly establish their position on the global stage."

With FTC's strategic and manufacturing support, Robocore is expected to achieve three-fold revenue growth over the next three years and aims for a five-fold increase by 2028. The company's growth will be primarily driven by accelerated expansion in the US, Europe, and Asia. Robocore plans to initiate its IPO process within five years, aiming to become one of the world's fastest-growing service robotic enterprises.

Proceeds from this funding round will be mainly used to strengthen Robocore's telemedicine business in the US, Europe and Japan, launch new products for mainland China's consumer market, and expand global sales and marketing operations. These initiatives aim to further consolidate its industry leadership position while preparing for a pre-2030 IPO.
