LYON, France--The leading summit on global robotics is unveiling a new organization, setting out on a tour of Europe in order to get even closer to key players in the sector. First stop: The Docks de Paris, where the upcoming edition will take place on 24, 25 and 26 May 2016 in the French capital.

Innorobo, Europes leading event dedicated entirely to the robotics sector and its innovations, has created a unique robotics ecosystem to speed up the time-to-market of innovations and technologies that provide solutions for the major challenges our world is facing. Since 2011, Innorobo brings together robotics companies from around the world alongside research laboratories, start-ups, inventors, public and private funding providers, institutional players, strategy and innovation decision makers from major international groups and SMEs and the media. Innorobo - A Human Robotics Event.

For its 6th edition, Innorobo is taking on a new dimension. In 2016, for the first time ever, the show will open its doors in Paris for a three-day panorama showcasing the state of the art of robotics technologies from around the world, with a larger exhibition hall, conferences featuring renowned specialists in the field and a number of workshops and demonstration areas.

Unlike sector-specific events (catering to industrial automation, smart regions, smarts homes, transportation, etc.), Innorobo showcases robotics technologies to a wide range of industries, thus promoting cross-innovation and providing players in a number of sectors with new opportunities for growth and diversification. Like the Internet, robotics technologies are nearly boundless, helping to shape innovation throughout society as a whole. Innorobo brings together all of these sectors in 6 core themes rolled out for the 2015 edition: Smart Cities; Technologies & Foresight; Medical & Health; Factories of the Future; Smart Homes; Field Robotics.

New destinations that reflect the events positioning

By taking the exhibition on a road trip throughout Europe starting in 2016, Innoecho, the impact consultancy firm that organizes the Innorobo event, aims to align the events ambitions - to be Europes premier forum for global robotics innovations - with local specificities and the needs of key players in the robotics sphere.
