Supporting program

A 360° view of automation and robotics: our supporting program.

automatica gives you the world's most comprehensive overview of automation technology components and systems. And a supporting program that provides focal points and experiences within this broad spectrum – oscillating between focus and foresight, theory and practice, status quo and the future. Find out what the world's leading robotics and AI experts have to say on the entire range of industry-specific topics and how current robot models hold up in hands-on tests. automatica has a special focus on dialog and discussions in its approach to covering and driving your automation opportunities.

What characterizes a world-leading exhibition? That it also offers a top-notch supporting program providing real added value through successful formats. 96 percent of visitors confirmed the supporting program’s relevance and topicality in 2022, and it will be further complemented and optimized in 2023.The focal points in 2023 will include intralogistics, service robotics, and support for young talent. And then there is much more:

Service Robot City

NEW: Record-breaking growth rates and an ever-expanding scope of applications indicate that service robots are on their way to becoming omnipresent. This is more than enough reason to dedicate even more space to this topic with great public appeal. The joint Service Robot City pavilion offers an exciting overview of the numerous application fields for service robots such as Health, Hospitality, Retail, Work, and Inspection & Monitoring. This is the place to experience innovative exhibits in action – and effective solutions to problems associated with the lack of specialists. Perfect example: the Robot Restaurant is partly staffed by machines, making it a centerpiece and highlight of the service robotics exhibition.
