How Alex Zhou built $3B startup Linkerbot to give robots human-like hands
This feature profiles Alex Zhou, who founded Linkerbot in 2023 to develop dexterous robotic hands capable of replicating human hand movements. The Beijing-based company became China's second-largest robotic hand manufacturer by 2025 shipments, supplying customers like Siemens, Samsung, Stanford, and Tsinghua, and was valued at $3 billion in an April funding round with Zhou's stake worth an estimated $920 million.

A Bloomberg feature examining how China is positioned to lead the global humanoid robot market, projected to reach $5 trillion, with advanced dexterous robotic hands being the critical missing piece for meaningful commercial deployment. Chinese startup LinkerBot, led by founder Alex Zhou, is highlighted as a key player working on replicating the biomechanical precision of human hands.
Meet Roger, the bomb-squad humanoid - The Rundown AI
Minerva Humanoids exited stealth with ~$10M in pre-seed funding led by General Catalyst to build Roger, a VR-piloted humanoid designed for bomb disposal, hazmat calls, and offshore-rig work, letting specialists operate from a safe distance. The Rundown also covers Agilink's OmniHand 3 Ultra learning Suzhou embroidery, a Fudan University microrobot powered by a paper-thin foot membrane that harvests energy from reactive metal surfaces, and MIT's SANDO trajectory planner that mathematically guarantees a drone won't collide with moving obstacles in unmapped spaces.
