​Where Real Business Value Is Being Created

​Physical AI is moving from impressive demos toward real products, customers and businesses.

​The first Physical AI Operators gathering brings together leaders across the robotics ecosystem to discuss where customer demand is emerging, which parts of the stack are already creating commercial value, and how startups can turn pilots and partnerships into scalable businesses.

​LinkedIn Page | Luma Calendar | Website

​We’ll explore

  • ​How open ecosystems, APIs, SDKs, and app-based architectures can accelerate adoption

  • ​How to build a community around a Physical AI platform and use it as a feedback loop for product development

  • ​How to choose partners close to the use case who can extend the capabilities of the robot or physical device

  • ​How to go to market together with partners combining technology, customer access, domain knowledge, integration, and support

  • ​How to turn a first pilot or integration into a repeatable and scalable commercial offering

  • ​Where customers are already paying for Physical AI today and what is driving that demand

  • ​Commercial opportunities beyond the robot itself, including data, evaluation, infrastructure and services

  • ​Business opportunities across hardware, manufacturing and supply chain

  • ​What separates a meaningful enterprise pilot from a demo that never converts into a larger partnership

  • ​How startups can structure early enterprise partnerships that scale beyond one customer

​Speakers

​Dennis Gu

​General Manager, WBCD Competition · Visiting Scholar at TASL, Georgia Tech

​Dennis collaborates with academia and industry partners to organize the international robotic research competitions in ICRA that focus on creating benchmarks and evaluations of commercial robotic deployments. He previously served as the Head of North America Business for a $3B robotics company.

​Mauro Riboni

​Technical Lead of Alliance and Partnership, Bosch Sensortec

​Mauro works on robotics partnerships, sensing technologies, ecosystem development, and bringing Bosch technologies into real-world robotics applications.

​Benoit Koenig

​Co-founder & COO, Veesion

​Veesion runs real-time shoplifting-detection AI across 10,000 stores worldwide, one of the largest physical AI systems actually deployed and generating revenue today. As a by-product, Veesion has built one of the world's largest real-world exocentric video datasets, now licensed to frontier labs and robotics teams for physical AI training. Benoît sits at the intersection of deployed physical AI and the data layer that powers it.

​Jerry Huang
