Linker Vision Raises US$35 Million to Advance Physical AI Globally

Linker Vision, a Santa Clara-based leader in AI software, has successfully secured US$35 million in Series A funding to accelerate its Physical AI global initiatives. The investment round was led by Taiwanese industrial group Abico, with strategic participation from NVIDIA and various institutional investors including Hotung Venture Group. These funds will support the worldwide expansion of Reasoning AI platforms designed for smart cities and autonomous industrial services. The company focuses on Large Vision Models that allow machines to interpret and navigate physical environments with human-like understanding. By integrating with the NVIDIA Metropolis and Omniverse ecosystems, Linker Vision creates sophisticated digital twins for urban and logistical management. This technology enables continuous learning for AI agents, allowing them to adapt to rare edge cases in traffic or factory safety without manual retraining.

Strategic Partnerships and Global Expansion

The strategic support from Abico Group is a key highlight, following their 2025 acquisition of a stake in Agility Robotics. This alignment suggests a powerful collaboration between robotic hardware and Linker Vision’s situational awareness software. Other backers like ITIC’s Noah GT Fund and ChangHwa Bank Venture further validate the company’s dual-hub strategy between its headquarters in California and research centers in Taiwan. Future development will focus on scaling operations in the Middle East, Europe, and Latin America while adding top-tier engineering talent to their R&D teams. This expansion plan follows a strategic roadmap presented during the Barcelona Smart City Expo 2025. The capital will also be used to refine platform integration for humanoid robotics and telecommunications providers. Current momentum includes high-profile international collaborations, such as a recent partnership with Viettel AI to build smart infrastructure in Vietnam. The company has also established a functional operations base at PIER F in Kaohsiung to test harbor-side logistics solutions. These projects serve as vital proof-of-concept models for sovereign AI applications where cities maintain ownership of their localized data models.
