The global robotics market was valued at more than USD$23bn in 2020, with forecasts suggesting it could nearly triple to USD$74bn by 2026.1
The average cost of an industrial robot declined from USD$46k in 2010 to just USD$27k in 2017 – and is forecasted to dip below USD$11k by 2025 as technology improves and scales, allowing for broader adoption across industries.2
Robotics and automation have wide-reaching applications, extending far beyond industrial activity. ROBO invests accordingly, with global exposure across multiple sectors and industries.
