European Robotics Forum 2021
April 13, 2021 – April 15, 2021

The European Robotics Forum, the most influential meeting of the robotics community in Europe, was initially going to be held in Rotterdam, Netherlands, on 23-25 March 2021. However, the euRobotics Board and local organising committee of ERF2021 decided to go virtual and postpone a physical ERF in Rotterdam by one year. euRobotics Board and staff are exploring the best way to keep the spirit of the forum alive. And PAL Robotics is looking forward to the virtual event this year and meeting robotics experts face-to face again in 2022 in Rotterdam.
You’ll find the material from the workshops we hosted, including the speaker presentations below:
