  • Fieldwork Robotics raised £3 million to scale autonomous raspberry-harvesting robots and move from technology validation toward commercial farm adoption.
  • The funding includes a £2.2 million equity round led by Elbow Beach, supplemented by £1.7 million in project grants, including non-dilutive Innovate UK support.
  • The company said the capital will support commercial trials and deployment activity in the UK, with additional trials planned in Portugal and Australia.

Fieldwork Robotics develops selective, adaptive, and modular agricultural harvesting robots, with its clearest commercial focus on autonomous raspberry harvesting. The company is building field-ready soft-fruit harvesting systems aimed at reducing labour dependence, lowering per-berry harvest cost, and improving grower economics across real farm environments.
