# After reaching the top of the global rankings and raising 1 billion, Starry Era's valuation exceeds 10 billion, making it the most supported embodied enterprise by industrial players

It is reported that the embodied intelligence company Star Motion Era recently completed a strategic round of financing of 1 billion yuan, with a valuation exceeding 10 billion. This round of financing was jointly invested by new institutions including Samsung, Gaocheng Investment, Singapore Telecommunications, Yuanta Capital (affiliated with Korea's Yuanta Financial Group), CICC Porsche, SMIC Juyuan, Fenghe Capital (Haichen Energy Storage), Xichuang Investment, GF Qianhe, Hongrui Group, and others, with existing shareholders such as Dinghui VGC and Qingkong Tiancheng making oversubscribed additional investments.

So far, Star Motion Era has attracted 16 domestic and foreign industrial investors, making it the largest in the embodied intelligence industry. The investors include leading domestic enterprises such as Geely Capital, Alibaba, Lenovo, Haier, BAIC, and Century Golden Resources, as well as international industrial giants like Samsung, Singapore Telecommunications, and Yuanta Capital, forming an ecological matrix of "international giants + domestic leaders" covering industries such as technology, automotive, logistics, 3C, semiconductors, new energy, new materials, and telecommunications. This has created a "capital + industry" collaborative model that not only provides financial support but also links industrial demand and resources for deep cooperation with Star Motion Era in areas such as scenario applications, channel construction, and supply chain assurance, building an irreplicable ecological barrier.

It is noteworthy that **this financing comes just 2 months after the previous round, and the intended investment amount far exceeds the fundraising target**.

**Embodied Model Ranks First Globally, World Model Second Globally**

As the only team with deep cooperation with Stanford University's Chelsea Finn team (founder of PI), the technical strength of founder Chen Jianyu has been validated on the international stage: the Ctrl-World world model jointly developed by both parties **ranked first in embodied tasks and second overall in the authoritative global world model evaluation WorldArena list in February 2026, surpassing international giants such as Google and NVIDIA**. Moreover, both parties jointly proposed the framework VLAW, which allows VLA and the world model to co-evolve for the first time, addressing challenges such as low physical fidelity and insufficient application adaptability in the practical application of embodied intelligence, leading a new paradigm in embodied brain research.

In the field of VLA embodied models, Star Motion Era has also pioneered multiple global firsts. In addition to several breakthroughs in world models, it was the first to propose innovative paradigms such as frequency-divided VLA and "VLA+ online reinforcement learning," with related results published earlier than those from PI, Google, and NVIDIA. The reinforcement learning technical solution has also been cited by PI's latest model π0.6.

**The Only Domestic Embodied Enterprise with Full-stack Self-research Capabilities in Software and Hardware**

Embodied intelligence interacts with the physical world in a real way, not merely "touching the physical world," but understanding physical rules like a human, responding to environmental uncertainties, and completing physically valuable tasks. The core dimensions supporting this foundation are: the "brain" responsible for perception and decision-making, which is the core engine of general intelligence; a stable ontology, serving as a reliable base for completing physical tasks; and a high-precision end effector (dexterous hand), which acts as the "last centimeter" for intelligent implementation. Any deviation from any one dimension would lead to a collapse of the entire system's capabilities 
The scarcity of Xingdong Jiyuan lies in its status as the **only domestic enterprise with full-stack self-research capabilities in brain, motion control, ontology, joint modules, and dexterous hands**, establishing a comprehensive technical support system that integrates software and hardware. Its self-developed native end-to-end embodied model ERA-42 achieves integrated perception, decision-making, and control processes, becoming the **world's first embodied model capable of performing operations with the entire body and dexterous hands**, granting embodied intelligence a penetrating capability for practical application.

In addition, the company's self-developed core components such as robotic motors and reducers have enabled its adult-sized bipedal robot, equivalent in height and weight to an adult male, to win the **high jump world championship and break the long jump record**. As dexterous hands become the critical point for robots to "transition from performance to work," Xingdong Jiyuan will launch the world's first direct-drive dexterous hand in 2024, which not only achieves **70% higher operational efficiency than humans in logistics scenarios** but also, as an independent product, is expected to ship nearly a thousand units in **2025**, with overseas sales accounting for 50%.

Full-stack self-research in both software and hardware not only signifies systemic advantages but also means complete autonomy and control from core algorithms to hardware systems, possessing **absolute leading advantages in technical closed-loop, cost control, efficient iteration, and scene implementation**.

**500 million orders achieve commercial leadership, with high-quality revenue, high marketization, and high repurchase rates**

Thanks to the full-stack self-research approach in both software and hardware, Xingdong Jiyuan's commercialization progress exhibits characteristics of "high-quality revenue, high marketization, and high repurchase." As of now, Xingdong Jiyuan's cumulative orders have surpassed 500 million yuan, with overseas business accounting for 50%. Among the top 10 global technology companies by market value, 9 have become its clients; international and market-oriented customers have a repurchase frequency as high as 6 times, achieving high gross profit margins and market revenue in the industry.

**Notably, Xingdong Jiyuan has achieved several breakthrough results in the logistics industry:** it has implemented the first embodied intelligent logistics solution in the country, applied in scenarios such as warehousing picking and express delivery supply **The logistics distribution centers in five major cities: Shenzhen, Huzhou, Hangzhou, Hefei, and Beijing have been fully established, with operational efficiency in some scenarios reaching 70%**; in collaboration with SF Express, the world's first cross-border logistics embodied intelligent inspection solution has been launched, officially starting customs inspections for cross-border goods; **single orders exceeding 50 million**, further confirming that Star Era's implementation in the logistics industry has transitioned from "scenario value verification" to "mass delivery."

In addition to the logistics industry, Star Era's industrial clients also include leading companies from the 3C, automotive, and high-end manufacturing sectors, such as Samsung, Geely, Renault, Lenovo, Haier, TCL, and Century Golden Resources; in the future, Star Era will take this financing as an opportunity to accelerate technological iteration and product scaling, focusing on expanding into e-commerce, industrial manufacturing, and pharmaceutical distribution, promoting embodied intelligence from "technology research and development" to "industrial application," creating a universal intelligent entity for the physical world, and assisting in the global industrial intelligence upgrade
