ARM Exchange Public Webinar: User-Friendly Automation and the Future of Work

Overview

User-friendly robotics technology is transforming manufacturing processes. It is poised to make automation accessible on a previously unseen scale, which will impact the future of work in manufacturing.

A diverse group of panelists ranging from operations leadership at an enterprise manufacturer (Stanley Black & Decker), and the R&D evangelist at one of the world’s largest logistics companies (FedEx), to the Co-Founder of a leader in the no-code robot programming movement (READY Robotics), will discuss the future of work in an increasingly automated manufacturing landscape. How will automation change the work environment, and skills requirements? How can manufacturing as an industry embrace automation and upskill or reskill the workers needed to power our new era of automation. Finally, what is the impact of all of this on jobs and overall productivity?
