Participated · Series A · Jul 2026
Founded in 2020 in Kristiansand, HIVE develops a silicon brain composed of neural networks trained to operate as human operators and retrofitted onto existing industrial machines rather than sold as new hardware. Its system has been deployed in tunnels, quarries and logistics sites and has delivered customer results at locations including Yara’s Herøya plant, a Norwegian Road Authority avalanche-clearance project, and through a prior partnership with Toyota Material Handling. HIVE says its software works across brands and machine types and becomes more effective the longer it operates. The company has 52 employees and is expanding from Europe into the U.S., using its recent $15M pre-Series A to hire more technical staff and support that expansion. HIVE is awaiting broader proof of physical-AI effectiveness, targeting measurable cost savings and efficiency gains in the second half of 2026. The founder, Christoffer Jørgenvåg, previously built and sold a control-systems company and this round represents his first institutional VC raise; total funding to date has not been disclosed.
