The Global Robotics Colloquia is a new series of online live events featuring speakers from academia and industry. The series, organized by the International Foundation of Robotics Research (IFRR), is conceived to provide a platform for open discussion and interaction on diverse themes in robotics - from research and applications to the field’s social impact and its ethical issues. The series’ goal is to engage both scientific and public communities across the globe in current issues and developments, with a format alternating between panels on broad themes and speakers on specific topics.
The colloquia are bi-weekly events. Times of the colloquia depend on the region where the event is hosted.
All recordings of past events can be accessed YouTube IFRR channel.
