Catalyst for Change: How Companies Turn Disruption Into Success

What are two things Mars and Earth have in common during this difficult time? Dangerous environments and roving robots. Originally conceived to explore the surface of Mars, Starship’s little rover is now meeting the needs of humans back on Earth.  Starship Technologies has rolled out a fleet of rovers roaming across the US and Europe to serve the basic need of safely and conveniently delivering meals.

Already deployed in over 30 cities, and with more than 1000 autonomous rovers in service, Starship recently completed 1 million delivery missions.

What is the future of robot delivery? What other needs could they serve? How will AI change daily life? Is anyone hungry?

Topics Discussed:

  • How are robots changing business models and the customer experience?
  • Adopting autonomous technology in public spaces
  • When will robot deliver become mainstream?
  • Food delivery today, but what’s next?
