Generative Bionics

Genoa, Italy · Startup

Generative Bionics builds intelligent humanoid robots designed for real industrial environments, spinning out of the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Genoa where over 20 years of robotics R&D underpins the company's technology. Founded in July 2024 by Daniele Pucci, Alessio Del Bue, Marco Maggiali, and Andrea Pagnin, the company raised €70 million in December 2025 — one of Europe's largest humanoid robotics rounds — led by CDP Venture Capital's AI Fund with AMD Ventures, Eni Next, and Tether. Its robots, built on the iCub and ergoCub programs, are targeting deployment in manufacturing, logistics, and hazardous environments.
