Koch Disruptive Technologies, an investment firm, led a $31m Series A round in Gideon Brothers, a Zagreb, Croatia-based robotics and AI startup, with participation from DB Schenker, Prologis Ventures, Rite-Hite, Taavet Hinrikus, Pentland Ventures, Peaksjah, HCVC (Hardware Club), Ivan Topčić, Nenad Bakić and Luca Ascani. The investment will be used to accelerate the development and commercialization of GB’s AI and 3D vision-based “autonomous mobile robots” or “AMRs”. These perform simple tasks such as transporting, picking up and dropping off products in order to free up humans to perform more valuable tasks.
