We aspire to see an Australian robotics industry that supports the strength and competitiveness of our domestic industries; including mining, energy, agriculture, manufacturing, construction, avionics, defence, and many more. Whilst Australia has strong robotics and automation capabilities it still requires a more rapid adoption of robotics and automation via focussed efforts on education, workforce upskilling and job changes, positive narrative, cultural mindset, skill shortage, remoteness challenges, risk, safety and efficiency gains. By addressing these aspects, stronger collaboration has the potential to raise Australia’s domestic and international profile in robotics given our existing capabilities, unique economic and geographic features (resources industry, low population density, remoteness, extreme environments), and a strong demand already in place for these technologies. The network has four main objectives: Promote and facilitate the creation of a robotics manufacturing and technology industry in Australia; Support existing Australian robotics and automation companies and encourage collaboration; Increase the adoption of robotics technology across Australia, including in SME supply chains; Develop and foster a positive social narrative in Australia around robotics. Membership to the Robotics Australia Network is now open. Join us and amplify your impact as a robotics business in Australia.
