Webinar: The Impact of Automation and Robotics on SMEs

June 13, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm AEST

Free

Presenter: Dr Sue Keay
Organisation: ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic Vision

Australian businesses are not adopting automation and robotics at the same rate as our global competitors. Yet conversely Australia leads the world in many innovations in this space. There is a gap in the integration space in Australia – at the point at which companies decide to automate they often struggle to find the support required to make a successful change.

In this webinar, Dr Sue Keay, Chief Operating Officer of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic Vision, will go through many of the findings from the Robotics Roadmap for
Australia, due to be launched on 18th June, about the current state of robotics in Australia and where these technologies are heading.

Find out the potential economic impact on businesses in Queensland, as well as what skill development will be required to ensure your business takes advantage of the new technologies coming.
