## Summary

Stardust Intelligence announced on October 13 that it has completed a new funding round of about 1 billion yuan, led by Toukong Donghai (Shenzhen Investment Holdings), with a post-money valuation of 15 billion yuan, about three months after its June Series B financing. The funds will be used for model iteration, talent expansion, commercialization, and production capacity building. The company uses a rope-driven technology approach instead of mainstream harmonic reducers, and its customers span retail, culture and tourism, and industrial sectors, but the article notes that whether rope drive can support large-scale delivery and whether orders can translate into sustained revenue remain to be verified.
