Our history
Our journey
2022
Release of Ned2 and international confirmation
A rugged version of Ned called Ned2 allows Niryo to cross the milestone of 70 export countries. Research, training, technical and higher education: many players call on our collaborative robots for professional use that pushes the limits of the imagination.
2021
Fundraising of 3 million euros and launch of Ned
After several years of self-financing and double-digit growth, fundraising allows us to accelerate our development. We then designed our second collaborative robot for the world of education: Ned.
A second move to Wambrechies, on the outskirts of Lille, allows Niryo to adapt to the growth in the workforce and the sophistication of its production environment.
2019
2020
First cobotic ecosystem
Two years after the launch of the Niryo One, we are launching the Vision Set and the Conveyor to allow it to prototype many industrial uses.
2018
First move!
Driven by growth that defied initial forecasts, Niryo left its ISEN premises in March 2018 to settle at the heart of Euratechnologies, also integrating the Scale accelerator program, enabling it to support its national and international development.
2017
Kickstarter, the kick-off
To launch our first collaborative robot, Niryo One, we created a Kickstarter campaign.
The robot convinced the public and the campaign achieved its goal in a single day, going up to 400% of it at the end of the fundraising campaign!
Our history
A startup at the service of Tomorrow
Composed of around forty employees embodied by a common and innovative vision, Niryo puts its expertise at the service of tomorrow by promoting robotics and a reasoned industry, which puts people and the planet back at the heart of its concerns.
The recent entry of the sector into the new paradigm represented by Industry 5.0 encourages Niryo to rethink robotics and industry as they were in the past and, above all, to act to respond to current ecological and social emergencies.
