Premier Event
ABOUT US
The Premier Event is the first event by KTH Robotics Society, a student-run society at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Our goal is to connect students with the companies shaping robotics in Sweden and the world, and it starts here.
THE SCHEDULE
Doors open at 17:00, with food and drinks served. Join the fireside chats from around 17:30 and get to know the speakers: who they are, their thoughts on the robotics trends, and more. After a short break, the panel starts at 18:45. We’ll talk about robotics in Stockholm and Sweden, the role of students in innovation, and how we can build the ecosystem together. Then stay for the mingle from 19:20 onwards over food and drinks to meet the speakers, ask questions and make connections that last.
Expect companies in robotics, physical AI, industrial automation and venture capital.
