SEER Robotics, the Shanghai-based maker of robot controllers and autonomous mobile robots formally known as Shanghai Seer Intelligent Technology, made its trading debut on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on June 24, 2026, raising roughly HK$1.07 billion (about US$137 million) in what the company billed as the first "robot brain" IPO.
Inside the offering
The company floated about 10.5 million H-shares at a fixed price of HK$101.60 each under the stock code 06106.HK, with China International Capital Corporation (CICC) acting as sole overall coordinator. Proceeds are earmarked for proprietary embodied-AI navigation algorithms, industrial logistics software infrastructure, and the expansion of SEER's international service networks.
The 'robot brain' business
Founded in 2020 by Zhao Yue, SEER Robotics has ranked No. 1 in global intelligent robot controller shipments for three consecutive years. Its portfolio spans motion-control "robot brain" controllers, autonomous forklifts, lifting robots and fleet-management software under the slogan "All Robots. One Platform." The company reported 2025 revenue of 442 million yuan ($61.5 million), up 30.2% year on year, though its net loss widened 11.2% to 47.1 million yuan — a profitability gap common among scaling robotics firms.
A wave of robotics listings
SEER's debut adds to a busy stretch for robotics public markets, particularly in China. It follows Unitree's STAR Market IPO approval and growing demand for warehouse autonomy seen in deployments like the Rainbow Robotics RB-Y1 Coupang pilot and orchestration platforms such as Roboteon's software shown at Automate 2026. Investor appetite for AMR firms is being tested as several Chinese players line up Hong Kong listings.
