The Robotics Table · Lisbon

​A small dinner for people working on robotics.

​Whether you build the hardware, train the models, collect the data or deploy robots in the real world, this one’s for you.

​Robotics is having its moment. Models are getting better, funding is moving and robots are starting to leave the lab. But most still struggle outside controlled environments, and nobody fully agrees on why.

​We’re bringing together around twelve founders, researchers, engineers and investors in robotics and physical AI during Web Summit week to talk about it over dinner.

​What we’ll talk about

• ​What’s actually holding robots back: models, hardware or data?

• ​How do you train and evaluate robots for the real world, not just the demo?

• ​Can Europe build a leading robotics company, or will it buy from the US and China?

​The format

• ​A seated dinner for around twelve people

• ​No talks, no pitches, no panels

• ​One table, one conversation
