YC Corporation
YC Corporation is a Seoul-based digital transformation company that helps small and mid-sized Korean manufacturers go digital. As an official Autodesk partner, it supplies and consults on CAD/CAM/PLM software (Fusion 360, AutoCAD, Inventor, PowerMill), builds its own YC Smart Line MES, and sells the hardware - CNC routers, laser markers, 3D printers and IoT sensors - to run it. Founded in 2022 and bootstrapped, the company reached roughly 7 billion won in revenue by mid-2024 by focusing on shops that earlier smart-factory programs overlooked.
Daedalus
Daedalus is an AI-driven precision manufacturing company building software-defined factories that produce high-precision parts for defense, medtech, semiconductors and industrial customers. Founded by former OpenAI Robotics technical lead Jonas Schneider, the company pairs off-the-shelf CNC hardware with its proprietary Manufacturing AI Platform to automate the work that traditionally requires veteran machinists - quoting, process planning, machine control and quality inspection - and runs it all out of a 50,000-square-foot factory in Karlsruhe, Germany.
