Thank you, Estonian Convention Bureau, Tallinn and Tallinna linn (City of Tallinn) for nominating Robotex International Conference: Generation R as one of the top conferences held in Tallinn in 2018!

Estonian Convention Bureau, Tallinn and Tallinna linn (City of Tallinn) nominated Robotex International Conference: Generation R as one of the top conferences held in Tallinn in 2018.

We're really happy to have had the chance to test this type of a new concept as a stand-alone emerging tech conference as part of Robotex International 2018 together with partners such as the City of Tallinn at the most awesome venue in town - KultuuriKatel!

The main learning for us was that the leading emerging tech solution builders and the entrepreneurs using those solutions in the Industry companies want to come together also in the Nordic and Baltic regions and urge for a high-level festival giving them such a reason. We'll figure out how to give it to them...

Changing Focus Back To Generating and Mapping 1'000'000 Robotics Talents

After lots of thinking and reflection, we decided to split the innovation programs off from Robotex. The problems we were going to solve in this part still matter, however, there will be another organisation that’s going to work on solving them in the future.

As for Robotex, we will double down on generating and mapping the 1'000'000 robotics talents.

Learn more why we came to this decision and what will be the activities run by Robotex network around the world...
