Montréal robotics firm Mecademic has raised $21 million in strategic funding led by Investissement Québec, with participation from Export Development Canada and the Business Development Bank of Canada.
The company builds ultra-compact industrial robots designed for precision manufacturing in electronics, medical devices, and biopharma. Small enough to fit in tight spaces, the robots enable automation where traditional systems cannot operate. Customers include SpaceX, NASA, and Meta. Mecademic plans to expand its headquarters and grow hiring across the United States, Europe, and Asia. Founded in 2013, the firm says it produces the world’s most precise compact industrial robots.
