Naïo Technologies is a French start-up, a pioneer and world leader in agricultural robotics. Since the company was founded just over ten years ago by two engineers, Aymeric and Gaëtan, Naïo believes it is possible to respect and celebrate our heritage while preparing for the future and our ecological transition towards a more environmentally friendly precision agriculture, ecosystems, and humans. That's why Naïo develops 100% electric and autonomous robots that allow farmers to focus on higher value-added tasks (and let the robot take care of sowing, hoeing, or weeding), reduce the arduousness of work, or compensate for the lack of manpower. Today, Naïo Technologies has over 350 robots in circulation around the world, and more than 80 employees based mainly in Escalquens (near Toulouse in the South of France). The company is also present in California, in Salinas, the heart of fruit & vegetable production in the United States. Naïo is supported by investors such as Mirova (a leading actor in sustainable investment), Bpifrance, Capagro (the first European independent venture capital fund dedicated to innovative AgTech & FoodTech startups with impact), and Demeter (a fund specialized in supporting ecological transition).
