Frequently asked questions.
What is Raisable Robotics?
Raisable's home for robotics and Physical AI in Silicon Valley. We host small, curated events — breakfasts, dinners, and pitch nights — and, starting in 2027, the Raisable Robotics Track: an equity-free, eight-week program in San Francisco for Series A robotics companies.
How do corporates and CVCs work with Raisable?
It starts with a 30-minute call. Corporate teams join our events as guests, run a thematic roundtable around their brief, co-host an event, or become a founding partner of the Raisable Robotics Track and choose its verticals with us. We share partnership details on the call.
Who can apply to the Raisable Robotics Track?
Series A robotics and Physical AI companies with robots working in real environments — pilots, deployments, or paying customers. Earlier-stage founders can apply for invitations to our events.
How do investors get access to the founders?
Share your thesis in a 45-second form, and we'll set up a 20-minute intro call. We send you founders matched to your thesis and invite you to the events that fit your focus.
How are guests selected?
Our team reviews every application personally. We know what founders, corporates, and investors are each looking for, and for every event and program, we invite the people most likely to do a deal together. We measure ourselves by one KPI: deals done in our community.
