Transforming an Industry: Lessons from 20 Years of Automation
Wednesday 11 June 2025
Main Stage
- Gain insights from Ocado’s 20-year journey of robotics and AI innovation - shaped by experimentation, self-disruption and a learn fast mindset.
- Automate with purpose, not just for the sake of it. The best automation solves real business pain points - if it doesn’t create value, it’s just expensive complexity.
- Don’t be afraid to self-disrupt. Meaningful transformation often requires a willingness to ‘reimagine’ or even abandon past investments.
- Simulate, test, and iterate - before you build. Digital twins and high-fidelity simulations have been game-changers, de-risking big investments and accelerating innovation.
