About CMR Surgical

CMR Surgical develops Versius, a robotic system that helps surgeons carry out minimal access (keyhole) operations. It describes itself as a global robotics company developing a universal robotic system for this kind of surgery.

The company says it is "revolutionising the future of minimal access surgery" and wants to change how surgery is delivered for patients, clinicians and healthcare systems. Its listed values are Ambitious, Humble, People-Focused and Fair & Responsible.

CMR is based in Cambridge, England. In October 2026 it announced a strategic alliance with Stryker, with CMR continuing to lead the development and selling of Versius outside the United States. A report on the deal says product and non-US commercial control stays in Cambridge.

In its own words, CMR is growing fast and breaking new ground, and offers autonomy and opportunity with work that is visible (company claims). We did not find headcount figures.
