The Milanese appointment of I-RIM 3D took place on Friday 11 October 2024 as part of the Robot Heart event. At the Fiera Milano RHO.
The afternoon was divided into three moments.
From 13 to 141.5 young startups competed to bring their entrepreneurial project to the market! I-RIM hosted the third edition of the RoboPitch competition to encourage the growth of new technology transfer projects in the field of Robotics.
From 2.15 pm to 3.45 pm we had the opportunity to listen to leading academics and industrial players on the new technologies and challenges of tomorrow’s robotics in the manufacturing environment. Finally, from 16.00 to 17.30, there was a workshop in which renowned experts talked about the evolution of industrial and service robotics to revolutionize new markets beyond manufacturing.
The 10 selected start-ups during Robopitch competition presented their ideas at the BIMU fair and the best 5 will win the right to access the I-RIM 3D Conference 2024 which will be held within Maker Faire Rome – The European Edition and participate in the final of the RoboPitch 2024 on October 25, 2024 in Rome.
