Close a priced seed round of at least €1–3M from a recognised hard-tech or robotics-specialist fund within 12 months — a named lead investor on the cap table is the single biggest scarcity proof point at this stage and would lift OVR 8–12 points on its own.

Ship one external traction milestone the market can verify: a signed paid pilot with a name-brand industrial customer, or a publicly demonstrable robotics capability (video + repo + benchmark) that a frontier lab would notice — current 'significant_results' is self-claimed and the market won't price it until it's external.

Relocate or open a second presence in a recognised robotics hub (SF Bay, Zurich, Tokyo, Shenzhen) and reach English C2 — average-geography plus single-language is a hard cap on the founder-track ceiling because the relevant capital, talent, and customers are not in your current pool.
