Startup NASA Series: Rosotics, Inc.
Join us for the next Startup NASA Series virtual event. This webinar series provides an opportunity for you to hear about early-stage companies that have licensed technologies developed at NASA and are working to commercialize these innovations.
On March 16th at 2pm ET, representatives from Rosotics, Inc. will be presenting on their experience working with NASA. Rosotics produces hyper-efficient metal additive manufacturing solutions that solve tough problems in industrial engineering. A pioneer of swarm robotics, they enable today’s manufacturers to additively manufacture structures that are normally difficult or impossible to print.
During this free virtual event, company representatives will share their story with you, including how they got involved with NASA and where they are currently in the development of their new products and/or systems.
