and machine learning, quicker than larger businesses
would.
The development cycle in small businesses tends to
be much shorter as there are fewer approvals needed.
If SMEs continue to operate in this way, we could end
up in a position where industry giants are learning
from start-up mavericks.
AUTOMATED: What can small businesses and
start-ups do to help the industry develop further?
Bieller: Small businesses are already proving they
have the creativity and agility to help the robotics
industry develop — they just need to continue what
they're doing and show larger companies what they
could miss out on if they do not adapt and make the
most of new robotics technology.
“Industry giants are learning
from start-up mavericks”
AUTOMATED: What skills do you think small
businesses should be looking for when recruiting?
Bieller: Small businesses need to have the
management and communication skills to spread the
word about how great their business is! The robotics
industry in particular is extremely competitive at the
moment, as lots of businesses are starting to realise
the benefits of the technology. By communicating
with the right people, in the right way, small
companies can ensure they're first in line for business.
AUTOMATED: We have one final question that we
ask everyone we interview. Who is your tech hero?
Bieller: There are far too many inspirations in the
industry to name just one, but I am always inspired by
robotics companies developing robotic exoskeletons
that allow paraplegics to walk again.
