German developer of robotic systems ARX Robotics has opened a Ukrainian office and become a resident of Diia.City. The company's immediate plans include transferring part of its production processes and development to Ukraine.
ARX Robotics develops autonomous modular unmanned ground systems and advanced digital solutions that are used in both military and commercial sectors. The company has created 12 different types of robots. And the development of GEREON RCS will soon help the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the front lines.
GEREON RCS is a multi-purpose tracked modular platform. It delivers cargo to the front line - food or ammunition - and evacuates the wounded. This allows you to save the lives of soldiers in the most dangerous areas of the front.
The platform is already in service with the armies of Germany, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, and has also been deployed as part of NATO missions on the eastern flank in Lithuania and Slovakia. In February, the Armed Forces of Ukraine also received 30 units of this equipment.
“Residency in Diya.City will allow the company to conduct business under the most favorable tax conditions, attract Ukrainian specialists, and develop production and research capacities more quickly . Last year, the company attracted funding from NATO for the development of robots . Now it will also be able to scale thanks to Diya.City tools,” said the Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov.
“In the Ukrainian office, the focus will be on technical specialists who will service the systems that we will deliver to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine,” the CEO of ARX Robotics Ukraine said in November. He added that these will be hardware and software engineers, as well as technical support specialists for operational maintenance.
