Physical AI Meetup Munich

Robots that work in a demo video are easy. Robots that work on a factory floor, in a warehouse or out in the real world are a different story. This evening is about the hard technical problems behind that gap, told by the engineers solving them.

We are bringing together builders, researchers and founders from the Munich robotics and physical AI scene for an evening of deep technical lightning talks, live demos and good conversations.

🎤 Format

  • 2 to 3 technical lightning talks (15 minutes each), with live demos where possible

  • Speakers share a real technical challenge they are working on for their company or customers, from perception and manipulation to voice AI for manufacturing

  • Joint Q&A with all speakers

  • Drinks & mingling with the Munich physical AI community

No sales pitches, no fluff. Just the interesting engineering.

Speaker lineup to be announced soon.
