Welcome to Episode 64 of The Robot Report Podcast, which brings conversations with robotics innovators straight to you. Join us each week for discussions with leading roboticists, innovative robotics companies, and other key members of the robotics community.
In today’s episode, Steve and Mike interview Fady Saad from Massrobotics and Eric Anderson from AWS Robotics about how MassRobotics and AWS are joining forces to enable young robotics startups to accelerate their growth and development. We learn about the new startup incubator program starting in 2022 and how your company can participate. Be sure to check the show notes below for links to apply for the accelerator.
An information session about the next cohort for the AWS Robotics Startup Accelerator will occur on January 10. Check the MassRobotics event calendar for details.
