From startup founders to Fortune 500 CIOs, here’s who’s in the running for this year’s honors. The City of Frisco will be the first “Host City Sponsor” for Tech Titans Oscar-style presentation ceremony.
A room service "Doorbot" could deliver your next breakfast if you stay at a Marriott International property like the Renaissance Dallas Hotel. Elsewhere in Marriott properties, cleaning robots are making things spiffy while "elevator-integrated robots" keep things on the up and up.
Positioning itself to be "the car dealership of robotics," Southlake-based RobotLAB said U.S. Army veteran local business leader Keith Edwards will head up its new Houston location. The company says it has other locations in the pipeline in Colorado, Florida, Nevada, Tennessee, and Texas.
California-based Cyngn said it chose RobotLAB as a preferred U.S. partner because of its decades-long experience successfully deploying more than 10,000 robots worldwide.
RobotLAB CEO and Founder Elad Inbar says the summit will shed light on the advantages that robotics and AI bring to various industries. And lunch will be served on robots.
The robots will serve you now. Restaurants across North Texas have been testing table-side food delivery robots, from La Duni in Dallas to Fort Worth's Japan House to Chili's locations across DFW. Now San Francisco-based RobotLAB—whose central U.S. office is in the DFW suburb of Southlake—has launched what it calls a "first-of-its-kind" robotics franchising program. It goes beyond restaurant robots to include robotics solutions for delivery, cleaning, education, and customer service.
