European Robotics – a Unified Vision

euRobotics is pleased to announce the public launch of ‘A Unified Vision for European Robotics’, a new strategy for innovation, growth and societal impact. It sets out the collective vision of the European Robotics community and draws on multiple sources of information from within Europe and beyond. Publication is timely – and urgent, because Europe needs robots more than ever to maintain its economic advantage and address its demographic and climate-related challenges. 

 Europe is a leader in robotics but the clock is ticking. A “Whole Europe” approach to research, innovation, deployment and uptake is needed, with the triangle of research, industry and policy makers all working together within a common framework to support innovation from lab bench to market in an unbroken chain, with standards and regulation aligned with market and innovation needs, and investment and fiscal policy enabling growth, not only in robotics but also within sectors that can raise productivity through the greater use of smarter robots. This requires strategic investment today; in education, skills, technology, research, deployment and uptake to maximise robotics’ economic and societal benefits.

We thank everyone who has contributed to ‘A Unified Vision for European Robotics’. With this new strategy we will start a fresh debate on the priorities for robotics in Europe. 

Join us to help shape the future of robotics in Europe and achieve the goals we have set out.
