The Robotics Summit & Expo, produced by The Robot Report and parent company WTWH Media, is pleased to announce its Academic Outreach Program. The program offers academics, researchers and students at colleges, universities and research centers complimentary and discounted full conference passes. The Robotics Summit & Expo, which runs June 5-6 at the Seaport World Trade Center in Boston, is an international engineering event designed for those developing commercial-class robots.

Under the Academic Outreach Program, approved educational and research institutions are provided two complimentary full conference passes to the event. Once those passes are used, others are still able to register at a discounted academic rate of $295 instead of the normal $595. Discounts are also available for groups of 10 or more, while expo only passes cost just $50.

To apply for the Academic Outreach Program, email Christina Lograsso at [email protected] using an email that includes “.edu.” Accepted applicants must present a valid student ID upon arrival at the conference.
