According to our Ecosystem Intelligence related to Agriculture and respective technology/machinery worldwide (AGCUMEN) there were over 2700 relevant organizations at the global core of the respective robotics network on 29 May 2024.

Intermediaries that rent or sells robotic solutions, manufacturers and startups themselves, universities involved in the R&D process as well as suppliers who deliver relevant components. The global robotics ecosystem is very dense as almost 90% of all organizations are related to the top 25 countries.

The US has the largest ecosystem (based on the number of organizations connected to it) followed by Germany, France, the Netherlands and e.g. the UK (see also below pie graph for their share in the global ecosystem).

As you can see the core network is tightly knit connecting a large part of the core players, which encompass organizations across the entire value chain, including government entities which provide grants.

The links represent real ties based on alliances, cooperations and many more relationships.
