Arise Middleware

ARISE at ERF 2026
2026-03-23 08:00 - 2026-03-27 17:00 (Europe/London) | Stavanger, Norway
The European Robotics Forum (ERF) is the leading event for the European robotics and AI community, bringing together over 1,000 participants from industry, academia, and the public sector. Held annually in a different European city, ERF is the go-to platform to explore cutting-edge technologies, foster collaboration, and address the latest challenges and trends shaping the future of robotics in Europe.
ARISE partners will be present at the event and participate in the workshop “Human-Robot Collaboration in Industry: Open-Source Middleware, Modular AI, and Safe Heavy-Duty Interaction”

Date and time: 24th March at 16:00pm
Room: Mastrafjorden B

Human–Robot Collaboration is moving from pilots to real industrial deployment. This workshop explores how to scale HRC safely and efficiently by combining human-centric system design, modular AI, and open-source middleware. We will address interoperability, safety assurance in heavy-duty environments, and integration challenges across diverse real scenarios. Bringing together research, SMEs, and industry, the session aims to identify practical frameworks, standardisation needs, and deployment pathways that enable trustworthy and scalable collaborative robotics in Europe.
Join us at ERF 2026 to exchange ideas, experiences, and shape the next steps for industrial HRC!

ADRA's Future Ready 2026: Harnessing AI, Data, and Robotics for Next-Generation Innovation
2026-04-16 09:00 - 17:00 | Covent Garden, Place Rogier 16, Brussels, 1210, Belgium
In collaboration with the European Commission and the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA).
The rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data Science, and Robotics is reshaping industries, economies, and societies. Research and innovation projects funded globally are generating transformative technologies, yet maximizing their impact requires strategic sharing, collaboration, and exploitation of outcomes. The Future Ready 2026 aims to bring together researchers, innovators, industry leaders, and policymakers to showcase successful projects, explore synergies, and identify opportunities for further development and commercialization.
The event serves as a platform to showcase cutting-edge results, discuss key challenges, and unlock opportunities for collaboration. A special focus was placed on engaging with Adra Topic Groups,—where diverse stakeholders unite to drive forward shared goals.
ARISE partners will join this event together with our sister projects JARVIS and FORTIS to showcase project synergies and explore collaboration opportunities.
