News Summary

Calgary-based robotics startup Attabotics has closed its operations and filed a notice of intention to make a proposal under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, indicating financial difficulties. Despite raising over $200 million CAD from institutional and government sources, including $34 million from Canada’s Strategic Innovation Fund, Attabotics faced significant challenges, including legal battles and high operational costs. Founded in 2015, the company developed a 3D robotics supply chain system for modern commerce, aiming to reduce warehouse needs. However, all employees have been terminated, and the startup has ceased operations.
