Take Part in a New Deal at the International Forum of Agricultural Robotics
October 23, 2020 The International Forum for Agricultural Robotics (FIRA), now in its fifth year, is set to go virtual Dec. 8-10, 2020 with a theme of “Agricultural Robotics: Part of the New Deal?”
As of mid-October, more than 500 participants from around the globe—including robotics manufacturers, agri-food companies, agribusinesses, producers, researchers, investors, media, and solutions providers—already have registered to join this year’s online edition, a follow-up to last year’s in-person event in Toulouse, France.
Regular FIRA registration of only $178 — half off the registration during conference week — is available through Nov. 30. Registration for growers is at no cost until Dec. 8, the opening day of the conference.
Conference sessions and roundtable discussions will be available both live online and “on demand” immediately after they are completed to allow participation from anywhere in the world, regardless of time zone.
From the U.S., scheduled presenters include Seana Day, Better Food Ventures & The Mixing Bowl, who will join a roundtable discussion entitled “From Lab to Success Story: What Business Model?”
U.S.-based exhibitors include Easton Robotics and Ztractor.
Farmwise will present during a workshop on agricultural robotics for fruits and vegetables.
The RobAgri Scientific Workshop, now in its second year, will be held in a dedicated “room,” providing presentations and posters of technical and scientific research projects.
And new for 2020: All robotics manufacturers will offer live demos in real conditions — a FIRA exclusive.
