It has been only two weeks since announcing our successor Fund II, and we are excited to lead our first investment from it. What better way to validate one of the main themes of the fund—Future of Work—than by backing a process automation platform for the global hospitality industry?

Founded by a stellar team combining hospitality domain expertise with advanced skills in process automation and system integration, RobosizeME leverages extensive industry knowledge and technical expertise to help hotel chains and large hospitality management companies enhance efficiencies in all areas of hotel operations. RobosizeME’s “digital workers” have already been introduced to multiple reputable hotel chains and hotel management companies, including Kempinski Hotels and Resorts, Louvre Hotels Group, Global Hotel Alliance, Design Hotels, Dorchester Collection, H World Hotels, MCR Hotels, Story Hospitality and many more.

This is the second time we are backing visionary founder Stephen Burke, following our Fund I investment in Kardi AI—a medical-grade long-term ECG heart monitoring startup. Stephen’s track record in the hospitality technology sector spans over 22 years and includes a successful previous exit. This time, he is teaming up with co-founders Linda Girrbach, a seasoned hospitality and revenue management expert, and Ivo Brabec, a CFO and finance entrepreneur.

We are excited to lead RobosizeME’s Seed round, which will enable the company to reach the milestone of signing 6,000 hotels within 18 months. Other investors in this round include hospitality-focused Czech – Indonesian newly forming Botanique Hospitality Management Group, also the owner of Botanique Hotel Prague and various hotels around Indonesia and prominent Czech angel investors.
