Robotic Infrastructure Microfactories

Hyperion Robotics raised $7.4 million in growth funding, co-led by Course Corrected and the European Innovation Council Fund, to scale its low-carbon infrastructure manufacturing across Europe through robotic microfactories. Compared with traditional construction, the company's factory-based approach produces infrastructure components up to three times faster, cuts costs by up to 50%, reduces CO₂ emissions by up to 70% and uses up to 75% less material.

The funding will launch Hyperion's first UK site, Forge I, in partnership with LKAB, producing components for the energy, utilities, water, data center and carbon capture sectors. Built on a software platform called Forge that integrates design, engineering and robotics into a single system, Hyperion already counts National Grid, Anglian Water and United Utilities among its clients, bringing its total funding to nearly $20 million.

Hyperion Robotics shows how robotic manufacturing can turn infrastructure into a scalable, lower-carbon product rather than a one-off construction project.
