Humanoid Robot Showcase for Business Leaders: Melbourne

Humanoid robots are no longer just an idea. They are already being deployed in warehouses, aged care, and factories around the world. The question for Australian business leaders is no longer whether this technology is coming. It is whether you are ready.

This is the inaugural event from Our Robot Future – a hands-on showcase designed specifically for business leaders who want to move beyond the headlines and develop a clear, grounded view of what humanoid robots actually are, where they are heading, and what that means for industry.

The afternoon runs from 2pm to 4pm on Monday 22 June 2026 at Veriu Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne.

The event opens with a presentation from David Pearce, founder of Our Robot Future, covering the global humanoid robot market: the scale of what is being developed, the key technologies driving it, the realistic timeline for commercial adoption, and what the outlook means for Australian industry. This is not a technology briefing. It is a strategic orientation for leaders who need a clear picture, not hype.

Adrian Tyson of Neuranext will then deliver an education session on the AI that powers humanoid robots – the intelligence layer that makes them capable of operating in real-world environments alongside people.

The heart of the afternoon is the robot showcase itself. Three humanoid robots will be on the floor: the Agibot X2, the Unitree G1, the Booster K1. Attendees will have the opportunity to experience each robot, observing their movement, stability, and real-world behaviour up close. This is not a video. It is not a product demo in a controlled lab setting. It is a genuine encounter with the technology.

The afternoon closes with a Q&A and panel discussion, open to whatever questions are on your mind.

• A clear sense of the realistic timeline for humanoid robot adoption
• What it means for your sector
• A hands-on experience to share with your colleagues
• A sharper frame for thinking about how this technology will affect your industry, your workforce, and your competitive position
