The partnership comes as Embotech’s proven autonomous driving solutions are being adopted across a growing number of vehicle platforms and industrial sites. At this stage, scaling deployments efficiently matters as much as advancing the technology itself.

Under the agreement, HTEC contributes engineering capacity and expertise in onboard software, vehicle integration, connectivity and system validation, enabling Embotech to deliver autonomous driving solutions at greater scale while retaining full control of its autonomy platform, certified safety architecture and product roadmap. For OEMs, logistics providers and yard operators, this means faster rollouts across multiple sites and vehicle platforms.

Embotech's autonomy solutions already operate 24/7 across factories, logistics centres and ports, moving more than 2,500 vehicles autonomously every day. The company's TÜV SÜD-certified Level 4 platform combines AI-powered perception, prediction and motion planning with independently certified safety systems, supporting both vehicle-based and infrastructure-based autonomous operations in industrial logistics.

“Our physical AI-enabled autonomy technology is already operating 24/7 in customer environments, and demand for Level 4 autonomous solutions continues to grow across industrial logistics,” says Andreas Kyrtatos, Embotech’s CEO. “HTEC adds the engineering expertise to make deployments faster and easier to scale across vehicle platforms and multiple sites.”

“Scaling autonomy in real-world vehicle environments requires more than innovation, it demands industrial-grade execution,” says Darko Todorovic, HTEC’s CTO. “HTEC brings deep expertise in embedded systems and OEM integration to deploy Embotech’s autonomy platform to multiple vehicle platforms. Together with Embotech, we’re enabling autonomous systems to deliver reliably across complex fleets, platforms and sites.”

Biocytogen and Whitehawk Therapeutics Enter Global Collaboration for Bispecific Antibody ADC Development7.7.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press release

Biocytogen (SSE: 688796; HKEX: 02315) and Whitehawk Therapeutics, Inc. (“Whitehawk,” Nasdaq: WHWK) today announced a global collaboration to develop bispecific antibody-drug conjugates (BsADC). Biocytogen will provide access to up to five bispecific antibodies using its proprietary RenLite® platform, and Whitehawk will evaluate these in combination with its ADC linker-payload platform technologies. Whitehawk then has the option to advance any resulting BsADC candidates as part of its pipeline. Based on a common light-chain design, RenLite® supports the discovery, screening, and optimization of fully human bispecific antibodies across diverse target combinations, while reducing the risk of light-chain mispairing and providing a robust molecular foundation for subsequent BsADC development. By bringing together the complementary capabilities of Biocytogen and Whitehawk, the collaboration aims to identify BsADC candidates with differentiated targeting profiles and therapeutic potential. “W
