How our team can support you
Hill Dickinson recently hosted the 9th STIQ Robotics
and Automation Networking Event, part of a series of
informal networking events focusing on the robotics
industry, from warehouse automation to humanoids
to industrial robots. These STIQ events are one of the
most prominent robotics meetups in the UK, with attendees from all sectors, including robotics businesses
themselves (both emerging and those who have already been round the block!) and investors. At a time
when the pace of technological development is faster
than ever in history, such events offer a crucial means
of staying up to date with developments and meeting
those who are at the forefront of the sector.
