20 Years of Advancing Robotics
Where the people, technologies, and ideas shaping robotics come together.
October 20-21, 2026
Santa Clara Convention Center
Commemorating Two Decades of Robotics Achievement
When RoboBusiness launched in 2004, the robotics industry looked very different. Kiva Systems was a startup, iRobot hadn’t gone public, and AI wasn’t yet driving every conversation.
Twenty years later, robots are transforming industries from logistics and healthcare to agriculture and manufacturing. AI is reshaping how robots operate.
But RoboBusiness’s mission remains unchanged: bringing together the people building robots to share what works, what doesn’t and identify real opportunities beyond the hype.
For two decades, founders, engineers, investors, and operators have gathered to move this industry forward. This anniversary isn’t just about marking twenty years. It’s about celebrating the community that made it possible and looking ahead to the next twenty years of collaboration and growth.
