Humanoid Global commits to strategic investment in Formic Technologies Inc.

Oct. 23, 2025, Vancouver and Chicago — Humanoid Global Holdings Corp., a publicly traded investment issuer focused on building and accelerating a portfolio of pioneering companies in the humanoid robotics and embodied AI sector, has announced a strategic investment into Formic Technologies Inc.

Formic aims to make it possible for small to mid-sized manufacturers to accelerate the adoption of automation through its “Robotics-as-a-Service” model, which is designed to enable rapid, scalable deployment with reduced operational risk.

“By helping to reduce financial and operational barriers, Formic seeks to enable more manufacturers to make the strategic decision to automate with greater confidence in their ability to maintain reliable consistency and quality, while also supporting improvements in employee safety and well-being,” said Shahab Samimi, chief executive officer of Humanoid Global, in a media release. “We believe that projected labor shortages in manufacturing could negatively impact productivity and contribute to instability across the supply chain and, by extension, the broader economy.”

Formic reports that its systems can be configured for a wide range of tasks across various environments.

According to the company, its deployed robots have collectively packed and stacked more than 1.2 billion products, achieved uptime levels of approximately 99 per cent and contributed to a significant reduction in reported customer safety incidents.

Formic has received international recognition for its work in industrial automation, having been named a Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum in 2023, included on Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies list, and featured in Andreessen Horowitz’s American Dynamism Top 50, among other recognitions.

Humanoid Global has committed $US 99,997 to its strategic investment in Formic. The investment has not yet been completed and remains subject to customary closing conditions.

The company will provide additional details regarding the investment in a future news release.
