The global industrial robot market is projected to generate $11.4 billion in revenue by 2029, and DF Auto aims to capture a significant share. The company has been recognized for its innovation, particularly its projects like Mak Cik Kiah 19 (MCK19), which distributed essential supplies to COVID-19 patients, and Zoei, an AMR with omnidirectional navigation for faster and safer operations.

Victor Chua, Founding & Managing Partner at Vynn Capital, emphasized the company’s potential for growth. “We believe the team at DF Auto is well-positioned to scale their business and create customer-centric products that will lead the next wave of industry transformation,” he said.
