RUSSIA RAPIDLY ADVANCING IN GLOBAL ROBOTICS RACE

RUSSIA RAPIDLY ADVANCING IN GLOBAL ROBOTICS RACE

The global robotics market is being reshaped by artificial intelligence, digital twins, new materials, and software platforms. For Russia, the focus is on developing homegrown critical technologies and channeling resources into the most promising areas of robotization.

The global robotics market reached approximately $90 B in 2025 and could almost double to $160 B by 2028.

Global R&D investment in robotics has reached $42-45 B annually. Successful projects show payback periods of 1.5 to 4 years, with ROI exceeding 30-40% in some cases.

Russia's industrial robot fleet has grown from 12,800 units in 2023 to 32,000-34,000 in 2025 — a more than 2.5x increase in just two years.

While Russia's robot density remains below the global average, the low starting base provides high potential for further growth.

Rostec is developing specialized robotic solutions including industrial welding and assembly complexes, unmanned aircraft systems, robotic agricultural machinery, autonomous logistics platforms, medical robotic products, and complexes for hazardous conditions.

Rostec State Corporation is one of the largest centers of robotics competencies, operating across the entire technological chain — from domestic electronic components and software to ready-made robotic systems.

Rosel Holding develops key technologies for industrial robotization: computing platforms, control systems, microelectronics, and AI solutions including ShokinGPT (reducing search time by up to 80%) and IIoT.Istok for digital twins.

Russian enterprises are moving from point-based robotization of individual operations to integrated robotic solutions within a single digital environment.

Domestic software platforms, control tools, and electronic components are becoming key elements of Russia's technological independence.

The most promising strategy is concentrating resources on autonomous intelligent systems, medical and educational robotics, and high-tech industrial solutions — building on existing scientific schools and growing domestic demand.
