Support entrepreneurship and sustainability in European robotics

Two of euRobotics’ flagship initiatives, the Renaud Champion Entrepreneurship Award and the Sustainability Leadership Recognition in Robotics, are now inviting sponsors and supporters to join us in advancing robotics for a better future.

Both initiatives will take place as part of the European Robotics Forum 2026, held from 23 – 27 March 2026 in Stavanger, Norway, and provide unique opportunities to engage with Europe’s most dynamic robotics innovators, researchers, and industry leaders.

Whether through financial sponsorship, support for participation, or collaboration on sustainability-focused activities, partners can help empower innovators and robotics start-ups or promote responsible development and strengthen the impact of robotics in society.

euRobotics Renaud Champion Entrepreneurship Award

The Renaud Champion Entrepreneurship Award celebrates and supports the most promising robotic startups in Europe. Each year, entrepreneurs and innovators compete for this prestigious recognition, pitching their ideas before a jury of experts and investors at the European Robotics Forum.

The award gives participants exposure to the European robotics and investment community, valuable coaching from entrepreneurship experts, and the chance to win euRobotics membership and other benefits.

Sponsorships for this award directly support the participation of finalists, including travel grants, workshop organisation, and event visibility.

What sponsors receive:
 Depending on the sponsorship level (starting from 500€), opportunities include:

  • Your logo displayed at the workshop and the award ceremony
  • Visibility on the euRobotics website and social media channels
  • Mentions in newsletters and press releases
  • The chance to hand over the award on stage and join the expert jury
  • Presentation opportunities at the event

Sponsoring the Renaud Champion Entrepreneurship Award means supporting the next generation of robotics entrepreneurs and showcasing your organisation’s commitment to innovation and growth in the European robotics ecosystem.

Sustainability Leadership Recognition in Robotics

The Sustainability Leadership Recognition in Robotics highlights efforts across the robotics community that advance sustainability, both through using robots to support sustainable development and by making robotics itself more sustainable.

Unlike a traditional award, this recognition focuses on celebrating leadership and inspiration rather than competition. Shortlisted candidates are showcased at the European Robotics Forum, with stories shared to inspire others toward a more sustainable robotics future.

We invite organisations and companies committed to advancing sustainability in robotics to partner with us. This could include, for example, supporting younger researchers or kids in developing robotic concepts that promote sustainability, empowering underrepresented groups, engaging communities in geographically underdeveloped regions, sponsoring travel costs, highlighting success stories, or co-developing new initiatives focused on sustainability. These are just examples; partners are welcome to propose and support the ideas they feel most passionate about. Together, we can nurture the next generation of innovators and drive meaningful change in robotics.

Supporting this initiative is not just a sponsorship; it’s an opportunity to amplify positive change in the robotics community and contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future.

Interested?

By sponsoring or supporting these initiatives, you will:

  • Strengthen your organisation’s visibility among Europe’s leading robotics stakeholders
  • Demonstrate your commitment to innovation, entrepreneurship, sustainability, and diversity
  • Help ensure equal access to opportunities across the robotics community
