Sequoia China and Unitree Robotics launched the "ShanYu·Chuang Plan", focusing on early-stage embodied AI projects.

on October 28, according to Sequoia Peak, Sequoia China and Unitree Robotics announced the joint launch of the "Shanyu Innovation Initiative," focusing on identifying and investing in early-stage startup projects in fields such as embodied AI, robotics applications, key upstream and downstream technologies, and other frontier hard tech sectors, with a particular emphasis on young entrepreneurial teams. The program will adopt an "engineer + investor" investment methodology: Unitree will provide cutting-edge technological insights and engineering guidance, while Sequoia China will offer capital backing and post-investment support, helping teams evolve from an initial idea, a snippet of code, or a prototype into scalable products. Its core strategy is "understand technology and industry, spot early, decide quickly, prioritize people, and avoid meddling."
