The UC San Diego Contextual Robotics Institute will hold its 7th annual Forum on November 16, 2022.  

Join us to connect with San Diego's top robotics firms, as well as researchers and students working on cutting-edge robotics.

The theme of the 2022 Forum is San Diego Robotics. From medical robots to autonomous trucks, unmanned aerial vehicles to bioinspired robots for deep sea exploration, the Forum will highlight the breadth and depth of robotics work underway here in San Diego, including at the Contextual Robotics Institute at UC San Diego.

The day-long program features presentations and panel discussions from some of the region's largest robotics companies, including Qualcomm, General Atomics, XCOM and Brain Corp, as well as posters and demonstrations of the groundbreaking research happening at UC San Diego. 

The Forum was postponed in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19. Read a 2019 Forum wrap-up here
