GBA International Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Summit 2025

The "GBA International Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Summit 2025" will be grandly held on November 10. Building on last year's enthusiastic response, this year's event returns with an even larger scale and a stronger lineup, with the theme "Empowering Resilient Industries through Embodied AI." It will bring together top experts from Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and China.

The summit features 13 keynote speeches, 2 parallel forums on "Industry " and "Technology," as well as specialised discussions. Additionally, there will be a 4-day exhibition of humanoid robots..

Heavy-weighted speakers include:

  • Professor Dario FLOREANO, Director, Laboratory of Intelligent Systems, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne
  • Professor Giorgio METTA, Scientific Director, Italian Institute of Technology
  • Professor Hiroshi ISHIGURO, "Father of Humanoids," and "Future of Life", Thematic Project Producer of EXPO 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan
  • Professor Jan PETERS, Head, Research Department on Systems AI for Robot Learning, German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence
  • Professor Jong-Hwan KIM, ”Father of Robot Football”  and Professor Emeritus of Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology
  • Leaders from TCL, Flexiv Robotics and KEENON Robotics

Embodied intelligence integrates perception, reasoning, and physical interaction, enabling systems to autonomously adapt to their environments and perform tasks. This drives transformation across industries like manufacturing, services, and healthcare, creating real economic value and social benefits.

Register now to engage with top global experts and seize new opportunities in Embodied Intelligence!
