WHAT’S A LAB?

Labs are customized, industry-specific programs for exploring and testing new use-cases of AI and robotics technology.

Labs can take place in a dedicated physical environment – like a farm, warehouse, city, or office – or in a virtual space. They bring together various stakeholders including founders, corporate industry experts, academic researchers, and thought leaders. Each Lab is home to a series of projects focusing on addressing specific use-cases for intelligent machines.


Projects can take many forms including a product pilot, an accelerator, a dataset challenge, or an event summit. If you are accepted in one of our Labs, projects can range from short timelines to 3-month engagements.
