Naïo Technologies

Naïo Technologies is a French startup, established in 2011, and a trailblazer in the field of agricultural robotics. Co-founded by two engineers, Aymeric and Gaëtan, the company aims to blend tradition with the future, fostering an ecological transition towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly precision agriculture. Naïo's portfolio comprises 100% electric and autonomous robots, liberating farmers from mundane tasks like sowing, hoeing, and weeding, thus enabling them to focus on higher value-added assignments. With over 350 robots in operation worldwide and a workforce of more than 80 employees primarily situated in Escalquens near Toulouse, France, Naïo has also expanded its presence to California, particularly in Salinas – a pivotal hub for fruit and vegetable production in the United States.

The startup has secured significant backing from prominent investors such as Mirova, a leading player in sustainable investment, Bpifrance, Capagro – the premier independent venture capital fund in Europe dedicated to innovative AgTech & FoodTech startups, and Demeter, a fund specializing in supporting ecological transition. Naïo Technologies also received a €32.00M Series B investment on 08 December 2022, attracting funds from a consortium of investors including Pymwymic, M Capital Partners, Codema, and ARIS Occitanie.

Naïo's commitment to revolutionize farming through robotics and sustainability has not only garnered immense investor support but also established the company as a global leader in the realm of autonomous robots for agriculture.
