    Signature Virtual Experience - Robotics ROI: Attainable automation in a pandemic and beyond

    The pandemic has prompted a new wave of automation enthusiasm, as robots are being seen as less of a potential threat to frontline employees, and more of a health and safety partner.

Join fellow TEC members as renowned MIT researchers Matt Beane and Erik Brynjolfsson deliver an exclusive, first look at their latest findings, which challenge conventional wisdom while offering a playbook for higher-yield automation even as the pandemic rages on.

    Speakers:
    Prof. Matt Beane, Assistant Professor in the Technology Management Program at the University of California, Santa Barbara and a Digital Fellow with Stanford’s Digital Economy Lab
    Prof. Erik Brynjolfsson, Director of the Stanford Digital Economy Lab at the Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI) and a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER)
