BEIJING, June 23, 2025 — Boyuan Capital, the Bosch Group’s investment platform, and Galbot, a leading innovator in general-purpose humanoid robots powered by Embodied AI, announced the formation of a joint venture named BOYIN INNOVATION ALLIANCE on June 17, 2025.
The collaboration was revealed at the “Open Bosch: Embodied AI Day” event on June 17. Bosch China, Boyuan Capital, and Galbot also signed a strategic memorandum of understanding (MOU) to jointly develop and commercialize Embodied Intelligent Robotics.
The joint venture will concentrate on industrial applications of Embodied AI in high-precision manufacturing, such as complex assembly, with the goal of promoting the widespread industrial use of Embodied AI and accelerating the global adoption of Embodied AI technologies. It will use Galbot’s Embodied AI technology to replace traditional rule-based and programmed automation deployment methods with Embodied AI models trained on real industrial scenario data, and it will develop next-generation intelligent robot systems for industrial scenarios. This represents a major step in moving Embodied AI from pilot testing to large-scale industrial deployment, in line with the global acceleration of smart manufacturing.
Galbot: A pioneer in Embodied AI
Galbot, recognized by The Information as one of the Top Asia Startups of 2024, has become a leader in Embodied AI. Galbot was founded in May 2023 by Prof. He Wang from Peking University, who earned his PhD from Stanford.
At the event, Galbot demonstrated its Embodied AI robots, showcasing fully autonomous capabilities in complex automotive and retail scenarios. The live demonstrations received widespread praise from key partners, including Bosch China, BoYuan Capital and United Automotive Electronic Systems (UAES), highlighting the maturity of Galbot’s Embodied AI technologies.
These demonstrations highlighted the maturity of Galbot’s technology stack, which includes: End-to-End VLA (Vision-Language-Action) Large Models with strong generalization capabilities; A proprietary simulation dataset containing over 10 billion high-quality robotic action data points; Advanced hardware systems featuring high-precision control and scenario adaptability.
Strategic Collaboration and Global Reach
As an early milestone, BOYIN INNOVATION ALLIANCE signed a memorandum of understanding with UAES to establish RoboFab, a joint laboratory focused on developing automotive-operations related expertise in Embodied AI and transforming industrialization.
“Embodied AI has the potential to transform manufacturing processes. We are already seeing its capabilities across various production stages. Through this collaboration between Boyuan Capital and Galbot, we expect to deliver commercially viable, scalable robotics solutions with real industry impact,” said Dr. Ingo Ramesohl, Managing Partner of Bosch Ventures.
“The future of manufacturing lies in intelligent, adaptive systems that can learn from real-world data,” said Professor He Wang, founder of Galbot. “Through this collaboration with Bosch and Boyuan Capital, we’re building an end-to-end value chain that will deliver globally competitive Embodied AI solutions for smart manufacturing.”
The joint venture will use a “global design, local production” strategy, allowing it to serve major international markets such as Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia.
Industry analysts consider this collaboration to be a significant development in the Embodied AI sector, with the potential to accelerate the industrialization of AI-driven robot systems in manufacturing. The partnership combines Bosch’s industrial experience, Boyuan’s financial resources and eco-system, and Galbot’s technological innovations in Embodied AI.
