Technological and Business Drivers of AI Robotics

Scaleup Robotics Robot
This expert-led workshop offers a strategic, business and technical perspective of the most recent developments in robotics & AI for business leaders, decision makers and investors who are looking to dive deeper into the economic and technical principles that underlie the next wave of AI-driven robotics & automation technologies. This workshop is taught by experts with research expertise and provides an exclusive opportunity for an un-biased and critical evaluation of the latest developments in AI-driven robotics.

Workshop Requirements

Recommended minimal time commitment: reserve time to attend the two 3 hour live video-workshops and a minimum of 2 hours for self-study preparation before each session.
Engage actively in the online workshop discussions with workshop leaders and fellow workshop participants.
No prior individual technical/hands-on AI or robotics experience assumed.

Workshop Outcomes

This workshop is aimed to level the playing field for business leaders, decision makers and investors to gain new insights and a fresh unbiased view into current developments in AI-driven Robotics.

Structured overview of technological components and developments in AI-driven robotics.
Overview of the innovation ecosystem - from startup to research groups.
Critical discussion of data requirements for recent imitation learning approaches.
Networking and access to like-minded group of leaders with an engaging discussion.
Take steps to more easily distinguish marketing hype from reality to assess the potential of emerging technologies.
Strategies for hiring the right talent for AI Robotics innovation.

What is included?

In this workshop, the presenters will utilize videos of recorded experiments featuring our robots to illustrate core technical concepts. If you prefer to learn to control and program a live robots yourself, our Hands-on Starter Program may be the right choice for you instead.

Module 1: Overview, History & Recent Developments

We provide an introduction and overview to the AI-driven robotics paradigm and a perspective of recent and historical developments of significance.

A short historical overview of AI-driven robotics and breakthroughs in recent years.
Research, corporate and startup competitive landscape overview
Recent developments. An up to date summary for 2025.

Module 2: Modern AI-driven Robotics

It seems like every day a new AI foundation model appears to revolutionize robotics. In this module we provide a structured overview of the important core technologies to allow you to distinguish hype from real innovation. We will discuss how these technologies can be applied in robotics.

What are Foundation Models for Robotics? From Large Language Models to Vision-Language-Action Models for Robotics
Diffusion Models and Teaching Robots via Human Demonstration
The role of classical methods in the AI paradigm? Control, Planning, Safety and more.

Module 3: Case Study of AI-Driven Pick & Place

In this module we will walk through the requirements for a full AI-driven implementation of a pick and place task and will illustrate aspects of the emerging challenges using videos and experimental insights gained from real robot experiments of a mock-up real-world implementation.

What goes into an AI-enabled pick & place solution?
Training data and benchmarking requirements
Discussion of a mock-up partial pick and place implementation and the resulting technical challenges

Module 4: The Business Case for AI-Driven Robotics

While it is easy to demonstrate initial success in lab settings, a full commercial implementation of AI-driven robotics solutions requires more than a tech demo. We discuss outstanding challenges and requirements towards commercial adoption.

A discussion of the economics of AI-Driven Robotics
Attracting the right skillsets
The importance of data flywheels and benchmarking at scale.
Distinguishing hype from reality in AI-Driven Robotics

How does this workshop function?

This workshop is given fully online.

  • Sign up and purchase your individual ticket using the link at the top of this page.
  • We will send you a workshop preparation document about a week before the workshop starts. Preparation for each of the workshop sessions should take no more than 2 hours.
  • We meet at the two scheduled times via video call. We will take a 15min break half-way through the 3-hour session. During these live sessions, we will have a mix of mini-lectures and group discussions for the workshop modules above.
  • We will facilitate networking of interested workshop participants following the event to build an active community of business leaders and investors interested in AI-driven robotics.
  • At the end of the workshop you will receive your completion certificate issued by Scaleup Robotics AB.

Who are the workshop organizers?

This workshop is taught by our co-founders themselves, drawing on a combined experience of over 20 years in AI & Robotics research and education with publications at top international venues such as NeurIPS, ICML and IEEE ICRA.
