UBTECH Robotics has secured a financing agreement of up to $1 billion from Infini Capital to support its expansion into the Middle East, where the two companies plan to establish a joint venture. This collaboration will include the development of a humanoid robot production superfactory, a research and development center, and regional headquarters. UBTECH stated that the partnership will enable it to enhance its leadership position in robotics, advance commercialization efforts, and build a larger share of the growing humanoid robotics market. The company believes that such initiatives will contribute to strengthening profitability while driving international expansion.

UBTECH, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Shenzhen, has been a prominent player in developing humanoid robots for education, customer service, healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing. The company claims that its Walker S series is currently the most widely deployed humanoid platform in factory training programs worldwide. Its client base includes major corporations such as BYD, Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor, Geely Auto, Zeekr, FAW-Volkswagen Qingdao Branch, Audi FAW, BAIC New Energy, SF Express, and Foxconn. Recently, UBTECH secured a $12.6 million contract from Shanghai-based Miyi Automotive Technology, which the company described as the largest current procurement order for humanoids. These developments reflect its efforts to strengthen its position as a leading supplier of humanoid robots to industry.

The financing from Infini Capital represents a significant vote of confidence in UBTECH’s future. Infini Capital, headquartered in Abu Dhabi and Hong Kong, has invested more than HK$10 billion in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, humanoid robotics, and smart manufacturing. Through its High-Tech Fund, Infini Capital will provide UBTECH with flexible financing options, including stock placements, convertible bond subscriptions, and cash-withdrawal rights. It has also increased its equity stake in UBTECH to 5 percent, signaling a deeper commitment to supporting the company’s long-term growth strategy. Previously, UBTECH had explored raising $307 million through a stock offering in Hong Kong, highlighting its ongoing efforts to strengthen financial stability while supporting research and expansion plans.

For the first half of 2025, UBTECH reported revenue growth of 27.5 percent, reaching 621 million yuan ($87.1 million U.S.), while its losses narrowed to 414 million yuan from 516 million yuan a year earlier, according to the South China Morning Post. This financial improvement comes at a time when the humanoid robotics market is forecasted by Morgan Stanley to reach nearly $1 billion by 2050, with China positioned as a leading force in its development. Despite competition from players such as Unitree Robotics and Boston Dynamics, UBTECH continues to invest in scaling production capacity and diversifying applications for humanoid technology. The partnership with Infini Capital is expected to strengthen its ability to address rising demand from both domestic and international markets.

UBTECH’s collaboration with Infini Capital illustrates how global capital is aligning with China’s ambitions in humanoid robotics. By establishing a superfactory and regional base in the Middle East, the company aims to leverage international opportunities and position itself closer to emerging markets that are rapidly adopting automation and advanced technologies. The expansion underscores the company’s intent to integrate robotics into real-world applications while pursuing sustainable growth on a global scale.
