Australia's robotics sector is scaling fast — here's what manufacturers need to know and do first in 2026.
In this episode, Nicci Rossouw, CEO of Robotics Australia Group, returns to unpack how the ecosystem has shifted and what's driving the most investable robotics businesses today. We cover:
- The National Robotics Strategy and why funding alone doesn't solve the scaling challenge
- What field robotics and physical AI mean for Australian manufacturers right now
- The common thread behind robotics companies gaining traction: measurable outcomes
- Sovereign capability, keeping IP onshore, and the role of collaboration across startups and universities
- The first practical steps manufacturers should take to adopt robotics in 2026
Whether you're a manufacturer evaluating automation options, an integrator, or a technology buyer, this episode gives you a grounded view of where Australian robotics is heading.
