PhysicsX, a deeptech startup headquartered in London, has secured €117.4 million in Series B funding to accelerate its mission of integrating AI into industrial engineering.
Led by Atomico, the round also saw participation from major players like Temasek, Siemens, Applied Materials, and July Fund. Returning investors included General Catalyst, Radius Capital, and Allen & Co.
AI-native software reshaping how engineers work
Founded by Jacomo Corbo and Robin Tuluie, PhysicsX is building AI-first software that enhances simulation, reduces design cycles, and boosts performance in engineering-heavy sectors. Their technology blends fast AI-driven physics inference with traditional numerical simulation methods to streamline product development.

Strategic push into industrial sectors
The fresh capital will go toward expanding PhysicsX’s global reach and further development of its enterprise platform. Industries such as aerospace, automotive, semiconductors, and energy are key targets. The startup has grown rapidly since its €32M Series A in late 2023—quadrupling revenue and scaling to over 150 employees.
High-performance meets high-tech
Both founders bring deep expertise: Corbo was co-founder of QuantumBlack (now part of McKinsey), and Tuluie held senior roles at Mercedes F1 and Bentley Motors. This unique blend of performance engineering and advanced AI gives PhysicsX an edge in developing transformative industrial tools.
