TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar 12, 2026--

Telexistence (TX) today announced it has been selected for the second cohort of the Physical AI Fellowship, a virtual program powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS) Startups and NVIDIA Inception that helps high-potential robotics startups build, refine, and scale physical AI solutions. Following the inaugural Fall 2025 cohort, the 2026 cohort brings together nine promising physical AI startups across agriculture, construction and renewable energy, industrial automation, retail and logistics, and humanoid robotics applications.

Among the nine selected globally, TX is the first and only Japanese company to be named a Fellow.

Through the Physical AI Fellowship, TX receives hands-on technical guidance, compute resources, and go-to-market opportunities. These will allow TX to accelerate the development of reliable, real-world products. Fellows, including TX, also receive support from AWS Generative AI Innovation Center (GenAIIC) scientists and experts, AWS credits, and NVIDIA resources, along with access to MassRobotics’ facilities and its broader network in the robotics community.

This opportunity will support TX’s work to develop and deploy robotics foundation models integrated with real-world robotic systems. With AWS cloud and AI stack credits and expert guidance, NVIDIA’s physical AI stack, and MassRobotics’ testbed and network, TX will expand and validate its intelligent robotic systems across retail, logistics, and manufacturing environments, where automation can address structural labor shortages while increasing operational resilience.
