BOOST explores emerging robotics and automation trends at automatica 2025

BOOST project attended automatica 2025, held from 24 to 27 June 2025 at Messe München in Munich, Germany.

Recognised as a leading international exhibition for smart automation and robotics, automatica brought together companies, researchers, technology providers and innovation stakeholders working across robotics, artificial intelligence, automated production and advanced manufacturing.

The event offered BOOST representatives valuable insights into the latest technological and market developments shaping the automation and robotics sectors. It also provided opportunities to engage with organisations involved in the development, transfer and commercialisation of advanced technologies within EIC programmes.

BOOST supports European Innovation Council Pathfinder and Transition beneficiaries as they explore potential routes from research to practical and commercial application. Participation in an industry-oriented event such as automatica helps the project remain connected to market needs and better understand the opportunities and challenges faced by deep-tech research teams when approaching industrial sectors.

The discussions and connections established during the event contributed to BOOST’s wider objective of reinforcing collaboration between research, industry and the European innovation ecosystem.

By attending automatica 2025, BOOST continued to promote the value of targeted funding, technology transfer support and ecosystem engagement in helping promising European research achieve greater innovation and market impact.
