Automatica: Starting Up
Robotics does not simply destroy jobs. It also creates new ones. This can be seen at Automatica in Munich - with the new special show for startups and business angels (investors).
By 2040, the labor market in Germany will be short ten million people compared to today due to demographic change. To compensate for the consequences, 77 percent of industrial decision-makers are already relying on "colleague" robots.
Start-up arena for newcomers and investors
Within the Automatica Start-Up Arena, newcomers get know-how for the implementation of their innovative projects, investors find exciting investment opportunities and industry representatives can find promising candidates for technical partnerships.
Makeathon: More young talent
From idea to implementation: At the Automatica Makeathon 2020, around 250 international young talents from the fields of software engineering, mechatronics and mechanics develop software and hardware prototypes for robotics, the Internet of Things and automation in just 30 hours. A contest for exciting new solutions - and the ideal recruiting environment for themselves. The neologism "to make" and "marathon" refers to a collaborative software and hardware development competition within a specific time frame.
For young talents with a passion for technology, the Automatica Makeathon offers optimal opportunities to turn theoretical knowledge into practical software and hardware prototypes. For participating exhibitors, on the other hand, the successful format is a perfect employer branding tool. Because they create awareness for their own company without wasting coverage, can sound out the skills of potential employees and have plenty of room for concrete recruiting discussions.
Solutions and products in robotics
From June 16 to 19, Auto- matica in Munich will show how robotics and automation contribute to keeping industry competitive. The trade show provides an overview of all relevant solutions and products for increasing automated production and also brings together all future-oriented key technologies under one roof.
Automatica Munich will take place from June 16 to 19, 2020.
