Michael Jacobs will share his expertise on the panel with industry luminaries Mike Cicco, president and CEO of FANUC America, Dave Gravel robotics technical expert at the Ford Motor Company, and moderator Jeff Burnstein, president of A3.
The symposium will also feature three additional sessions: AI and Ethics, Cobots at Work, and Preparing Your Workforce: Future Worker Roles, Education, and Skill Requirements. The panelists are thought leaders from diverse organizations such as the University of Michigan, Littler, A3, Silicon Valley Law Group, KUKA Robotics USA, Cuatrecasas, Universal Robots, Michigan Mobility Institute, Robert Bosch LLC, and FortiGuard Labs.
