Swiss deep tech startup Delvitech has raised $40 million in Series B funding. The round was led by EGS Beteiligungen (EGSB), the investment arm of the Ernst Göhner Foundation, alongside CREADD Ventures and several European private investors.
Backed by this new funding, Delvitech is entering its next growth phase. The company plans to expand globally, with a major focus on India, where it will establish a manufacturing facility by 2026. The goal is to reach a production capacity of over 200 machines per month by 2030, reinforcing its role as a key player in the global electronics ecosystem.
Redefines quality control for the electronics industry
Founded by Roberto Gatti in 2018, Delvitech specialises in AI-native Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems that combine Swiss-engineered hardware with self-learning neural networks. Its technology is designed to identify even the most elusive defects across complex materials, from transparent glues to micro-pitch connectors with unmatched precision and adaptability.
Unlike conventional inspection systems that require extensive manual programming, Delvitech’s solution learns autonomously from production data. This minimises downtime, improves detection accuracy, and significantly reduces operating costs. Its systems are already trusted by industries such as automotive, telecommunications, defense, IoT, and industrial automation, and soon will extend to semiconductor inspection.
The company’s proprietary HORUS optical heads are setting new standards in speed and resolution. The HORUS XP captures images in just 60 milliseconds, while the HORUS HD, tailored for microelectronics, achieves an ultra-fine 3-micron resolution, a new benchmark for precision inspection.
With headquarters in Switzerland and subsidiaries in India, the USA, Germany, and Italy, Delvitech is on track for 400% sales growth by the end of 2025. Its recognition by the Swiss Economic Forum’s SEF.Growth High-Potential Label validates its strong business fundamentals and innovation-driven model.
Swiss precision meets predictive intelligence
Rooted deeply in Swiss research excellence, Delvitech collaborates with IDSIA, SUPSI, and HEIG-VD, three leading institutions in artificial intelligence and applied sciences. These partnerships continue to strengthen its technological foundation and contribute to the regional innovation ecosystem.
At Productronica Munich 2025, Delvitech will unveil its next generation of self-training and predictive AOI systems, including a patent-pending predictive software that doesn’t just detect defects but also prevents them. By transforming inspection into intelligent prediction, Delvitech is setting the stage for a future where quality control becomes proactive, precise, and sustainable, reaffirming Switzerland’s reputation for engineering excellence on a global scale.
“Investors and customers have recognised that Delvitech represents a unique opportunity,” concluded Gatti, “a highly specialised industrial deep tech company with solid foundations, a global vision, and proprietary, scalable technology.”
“Our commitment to Delvitech reflects our strong belief in the company’s innovation leadership in AI-driven optical inspection and its international growth potential,” said Christian Pfab, member of the executive committee of EGSB.
“As an investor in Delvitech since 2018, we are very pleased with its strong development and remain fully committed to supporting this outstanding company,” said Paolo Orsatti, managing partner of Creadd Ventures and TiVentures.
