Remora Robotics, a Norway-based tech company specializing in aquaculture automation, has raised €13.7 million (NOK 164M) in fresh funding to accelerate the deployment of its underwater robotics platform.
The round was led by Hatch Blue’s Blue Revolution Fund, with continued backing from existing investors including Grieg Kapital.
Founded in 2016, Remora Robotics is on a mission to revolutionize underwater maintenance in fish farming through robotic automation. The company’s flagship product is an autonomous submarine robot designed to clean aquaculture nets and inspect fish cages using AI, all while gathering critical environmental data. This innovation aims to boost fish welfare, reduce biological risk, and improve operational efficiency for salmon farmers.
High demand and upcoming expansion
The company has already achieved several commercial milestones, with major aquaculture players adopting its solution. Its production capacity is reportedly sold out for the next six months. CEO Svein Erik Gregersen commented, “We’re incredibly proud of what the team has achieved so far, and it’s highly motivating to see such strong market response to our technology. This funding gives us the opportunity to further develop the platform and deliver even more value to our customers.”
Remora Robotics plans to present a new software platform for AI-powered net integrity monitoring at the upcoming Aqua Nor aquaculture tech exhibition in August.

Headquartered in Stavanger, Remora Robotics works closely with leading Norwegian research institutions such as SINTEF, NTNU, and the Norwegian Research Council. Having proven its technology in the Norwegian market, the startup is now preparing for international expansion.
Board member Thomas Grieg of Grieg Kapital noted, “We’ve been part of Remora’s journey since 2023, and what they’re now delivering to the market confirms both their vision and ability to execute. That’s why we’re increasing our investment.”
With strong momentum and growing demand, Remora Robotics is positioning itself to lead the next wave of automation in the global aquaculture industry.
