6 reasons robotics startups must attend RoboBusiness

-

The RoboBusiness Conference & Expo, which runs Oct. 19-20 in Santa Clara, doesn’t just cater to established robotics companies. This industry event features a plethora of startups looking to make their mark on the world.

RoboBusiness provides a variety of opportunities for robotics startups to learn, network, and continue to scale their business. Here are 6 reasons why startup robotics companies must attend this event.

Startup Bootcamp

RoboBusiness partnered with MassRobotics on a startup bootcamp that covers the major stages in a startup’s formation. Topics include legal formation, stock options and patents, dilutive and non-dilutive investments, the path to manufacturing, best practices in accounting, and bringing on marketing, sales and HR experts, as well as fundraising and exits. Learn more about the boot camp by viewing the RoboBusiness agenda.

Connect with investors

Leading robotics industry investors will be at RoboBusiness to discuss the current state of robotics investments and share insights about how to attract funding as an early-stage robotics startup. Come rub elbows with leading venture capitalists in Silicon Valley.

The conference portion of RoboBusiness will also discuss investments. Maryanna Saenko, co-founder and partner of Future Ventures, is hosting a session called “How to Attract Funding as an Early-Stage Startup,” and RoboBusiness will host a keynote panel with leading robotics industry venture capitalists about the current state of robotics investments.

Learn from world-class robotics clusters

MassRobotics, the Odense Robotics Cluster, the Pittsburgh Robotics Network and Silicon Valley Robotics – four of the world’s leading robotics clusters – will be well represented at RoboBusiness. Connect with these industry leaders and learn about how they can help scale your robotics startup.

Earlier this year, the three aforementioned U.S.-based robotics clusters formed the United States Alliance of Robotics Clusters (USARC). USARC supports the development, commercialization and scaling of robotics for global good by collaborating with government and industry stakeholders.

Explore the latest enabling technologies

More than 60 exhibitors will showcase their enabling technologies, products and services that can help you commercialize your robotics system. And RoboBusiness’ Exploiting Technologies Conference Track will provide deep dives into sensing, machine learning, motion control, networking and the latest design and development tools.

Networking opportunities

RoboBusiness is more than just an expo floor and robotics conference – it’s a chance to meet with peers in the industry across different markets. Making connections (and deals) with the robotics community has been and will always be a large part of RoboBusiness.

Robotics start-up competition

Often imitated, RoboBusiness’ Pitchfire competition gives robotics startups a few minutes each to present their ideas before being questioned by our expert panel of judges. Past participants have gone on to receive major funding and commercial success. The startups competing this year are FLX Solutions, Raise Robotics, Tatum Robotics, Transitive Robotics and Vici Robotics.

Chipotle testing avocado processing robot in test kitchen

Chipotle Mexican Grill announced Autocado, an avocado processing cobotic prototype that cuts, cores, and peels avocados before they are hand mashed to create the restaurant’s famous guacamole. The prototype, developed in collaboration with Vebu , is currently being tested at the Chipotle Cultivate Center in Irvine , California.  How Autocado works  A team member loads Autocado with a full case of ripe avocados and selects the size setting. Autocado can hold up to 25 lbs. of avocados at once. One at a time, avocados are vertically oriented, then transferred to the processing device. The avocados are sliced in half. Their cores and skin are automatically removed, and the waste is discarded.  The fruit is safely collected in a stainless-steel bowl at the bottom of the device.  A team member removes the bowl of avocado fruit and moves it to the counter where they add additional ingredients and hand mash the avocados to make Chipotle’s signature guacamole.  How the Autocado idea s

Noah Medical announced that its Galaxy System, an integrated system for navigated robotic bronchoscopy, was used for the first time in the United States at the University of Chicago Medicine by Dr. Kyle Hogarth.  This procedure marks the first commercial release of the Galaxy System in the US following its recent FDA clearance and first-in-human trials at Macquarie University Hospital in Sydney, Australia. The system was designed to give physicians more confidence in locating and navigating to lung nodules during biopsies as part of a more effective and efficient bronchoscopy procedure.   “The Galaxy System is the first robot for peripheral lung navigation that includes integrated imaging, which is the solution bronchoscopists have been asking for,” Hogarth said. “We are excited to be the first hospital in the United States to implement this next-generation robotic solution for our patients which we believe will improve and expedite the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.

Intrinsic tested its latest platform and Flowstate with Comau , an Italian-based robot manufacturer and global systems integrator. Comau has been working with Intrinsic for several years now to validate Intrinsic’s platform technology and developer product, Flowstate, through real-world use cases.  Flowstate, announced earlier this year in May , is a robotic software development platform. It’s Intrinsic’s first developer product built on the Intrinsic platform. Comau was also introduced as the company’s first industry partner in May.  The Intrinsic Flowstate software  adds a layer of abstraction to traditional robotic software tools with the goal of reducing the development skillset required while making it easier than ever before to program a robot in simulation. “Partnering with Comau over the years has brought our team a tremendous amount of expertise, knowledge, and real-world use cases to focus our efforts on. We’re excited for what’s next and what it will mean to the solutio
