Reliance Strategic Business Ventures Limited (RSBVL), a subsidiary of Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), has acquired a 23.3 per cent stake in US-based Exyn Technologies for $25 million.
The two companies have also entered into a Strategic Partnership Agreement to collaborate on technology and commercialise Exyn's technology.
Exyn, an early stage technology company based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, specialises in developing multi-platform robotic autonomy for complex, GPS-denied environments, RIL said in a statement.
The company's full-stack solution allows for the deployment of single or multi-robots that can adapt to complex environments in real-time.
Exyn is a leading autonomy technology company that enables drones and robots to navigate difficult terrains without GPS or other navigation technologies.
In the last three years, Exyn's turnover has been $4.32 million, $1.83 million, and $0.16 million for 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
The aforesaid investment and partnership by RSBVL will have synergies with Reliance’s investments and strategic initiatives in drone, industrial safety & security and robotics areas, while accelerating Exyn’s product and technology development across multiple application areas and commercialisation.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
