Micropsi Industries made the move from Germany to the U.S. to accelerate growth and be closer to customers in the North American market.
SAN FRANCISCO—Micropsi Industries, Inc., a provider of AI software for industrial robots, has transitioned to a U.S.-based company headquartered in San Francisco, the company said in a release.
Previously headquartered in Germany, Micropsi Industries called the move a strategic shift that “aligns with its growth objectives, enabling it to be closer to its North American customers and to provide a more robust infrastructure to support the regional market.”
Micropsi Industries specializes in AI-vision software for industrial and collaborative robots. Its flagship product, MIRAI, enables real-time control of robotic arms through the application of advanced AI, allowing robots to learn from training data and adapt to variance. “This innovation enables more efficient and robust operation in dynamic factory environments,” the company stated in the release.
Because it understands the complexity of integrating such advanced technologies, Micropsi offers more than cutting-edge software. The company stated that it also offers “the deep expertise of its seasoned team and curated network of system integration partners.”
“Their dedicated customer success teams work closely with customers to ensure that each solution is perfectly tailored and seamlessly integrated into their operations,” the company said in the release.
Micropsi’s transition to a U.S.-based operation follows the appointment of seasoned B2B software leader Gary Jackson as CEO in December 2023. With decades of executive leadership experience, Jackson is steering the company’s business strategy to drive global growth and expansion.
“The U.S. manufacturing sector is expanding and rapidly adopting new technologies,” Jackson said in the release. “AI-based solutions are becoming crucial for addressing labor shortages amid the significant movement to reshore manufacturing to the U.S. As we enhance our footprint in the U.S., we are excited to establish a stronger foundation that will enable us to better access and serve the market. This strategic move allows us to be closer to our customers and partners, enhancing our ability to deliver exceptional value and drive innovation.”
Micropsi Industries, Inc., now headquartered in San Francisco, has become the parent company. The German entity, now a subsidiary based in Berlin, will continue to focus on research and development, product innovation, and European market operations.
“Both locations have driven the company’s success and will remain crucial to its future growth,” the company said in the release. Micropsi also stated that it plans on establishing a new location in the Boston area soon, to further expand its presence.
