Robotics Keynote –
The next
industrial revolution.
Humanoid robots are no longer science fiction. Roman Weishäupl shows which systems are already deployed today – and brings real robots on stage. Your audience experiences live how humans and machines interact.
In his robotics keynote, Roman Weishäupl shows which humanoid robots are already deployed today, what they can do – and what they still can't. He brings real robots on stage, explains where robotics arrives first in manufacturing, logistics, care and retail, and gives organisations a sober timeline and a strategy they can act on now.
What your audience
takes away
No grey theory. Roman delivers clear insights that work immediately in everyday professional life – understandable for everyone, relevant for every industry.
Understand humanoid robots
Which systems already exist in 2026, what they can do – and what they still can't. Realism over hype.
Industries in transition
Manufacturing, logistics, care, retail: where robotics hits first and how jobs are changing.
Human & machine
How collaborative robots (cobots) complement humans – not competition, but amplification.
Live on stage
Real robots, real interaction – your audience doesn't just hear about the future, they experience it.
Honest timeline
When does robotics really go mainstream? Roman delivers a sober, evidence-based assessment.
Strategy for today
How organisations position themselves now to benefit from robotics rather than be disrupted by it.
Humanoid robotics keynote: frequently asked questions
What is Roman Weishäupl's robotics keynote about?
It is about humanoid robots moving out of science fiction and into everyday work. Roman explains which systems exist today and what they can realistically do, how collaborative robots (cobots) complement people rather than replace them, and how organisations can position themselves to benefit from robotics instead of being disrupted by it. Realism over hype.
Does Roman Weishäupl bring real robots on stage?
Yes – that is what sets this keynote apart. Instead of videos or renderings, Roman brings real robots on stage, so the audience sees first-hand how humans and machines interact. People don't just hear about the future of robotics, they experience it – which turns an abstract technology debate into something tangible.
When will humanoid robots become part of everyday business?
They are already being tested in pilot projects, and robotics arrives first in manufacturing, logistics, care and retail. Rather than hype, Roman offers a sober, evidence-based timeline. One lesson from a pilot in which a humanoid robot loads an injection moulding machine: machines and processes have to become “humanoid-ready” too.

Who is the robotics keynote for?
Executives, specialists and mixed company audiences alike – no prior knowledge is needed. The topic is especially relevant for the industries where robotics hits first: manufacturing, logistics, care and retail. The live moment with a real robot works for any audience, from industry conferences to annual company meetings.
How long is the keynote and in which languages is it available?
The robotics keynote runs 45 to 90 minutes, with Q&A on request. Roman delivers it in English or German – for audiences of 8 to 5,000 people, with real robots on stage, in Germany, across Europe and internationally.
Can the robotics keynote be combined with other topics?
Yes. It works as a standalone keynote or in combination – for example with the AI keynote or the AIoT keynote if your event focuses on intelligent products and machines. Every keynote is tailored to your event after an alignment call; ideally, get in touch 6–8 weeks in advance.
