Announcing the agenda for Robotics+AI - March 3 at UC Berkeley

We're bringing TC Sessions: Robotics+AI back to UC Berkeley on March 3, and we're excited to announce our jam-packed agenda. For months we've been recruiting speakers from the ranks of the most innovative founders, top technologists and hard-charging VCs working in robotics and AI, and the speaker line-up will capture the remarkable acceleration across the field in the past year.

New for this year, we will be hosting our very first pitch-off competition for early-stage robotics companies. There is still time to submit your application.

And one amazing fact: 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the first use of the word "robot." What better way to mark the occasion than to grab an early-bird ticket ($150 savings) right now and right here before prices increase.

We've still got some key guests to announce, and will be adding some new names to the agenda in the coming days. In the meantime, check out these highlights:
