MassRobotics, Pittsburgh Robotics Network and Silicon Valley Robotics recently created the United States Alliance of Robotics Clusters
It is well documented that robotics clusters, groups of regionally localized robotics companies, enthusiastic investors, universities and research institutions, and other supporting organizations, act as facilitators and accelerators for robotics innovation, new business formation, job creation and regional wealth generation.
At RoboBusiness 2022, which takes place Oct. 19-20 in Santa Clara, Calif., a panel featuring representatives from various robotics clusters will describe how clusters support robotics companies and robotics communities, and by extension, career opportunities.
For companies developing robotics solutions, as well as individual engineers, awareness and understanding of the outsized role robotics clusters play in the growth of the overall robotics sector, particularly as it relates to business planning and partnership opportunities, is critical. Topics covered in the panel will include:
- Global robotics clusters
- Partnering with robotics clusters
- Conclusions and recommendations
At press time, the speakers on the panel included Andra Keay, managing director of Silicon Valley Robotics, Joel Reed executive director of the Pittsburgh Robotics Network, and Joyce Sidopoulos, co-founder and chief of operations at MassRobotics. You can view the full RoboBusiness agenda here.
Earlier in 2022, these three leading 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. The organization will develop and drive U.S. robotics mandates. The panel at RoboBusiness will also provide insights and updates about the USARC.
