2020 Robotics Pitchfire Competition
The RoboBusiness Conference & Expo provides a forum for members of the robotics sector value chain to come together to network with industry peers, learn about the latest robotics technical and business trends, exchange ideas, and uncover new opportunities, all with the goal of driving robotics innovation and spurring robotics sector growth. Central to this vision is the launching and development of new robotics companies.
$2,500 Prize
For seven years, the Robotics Conference & Expo has featured the Robotics Pitchfire, a must-attend event where robotics startups compete for a $2,500 cash prize for the best robotics solution. The Pitchfire event will be covered by Robot Report, Robotics Business Review and other robotics media companies, and the winning company will also be profiled in Robotics Business Review.
