RoboCluster is a national network for innovation within robotics and automation. The goal is to maintain and further expand the robotics sector in Denmark, by generating and ensuring optimal conditions for innovation in new, as well as existing, enterprises and mobilize robotics in existing fields such as hospitals, farming, industry, play and education.

Through specific development projects and network activities, RoboCluster brings suppliers, producers, scientists and researchers together to share and develop knowledge and knowhow.

The purpose is to create technical innovation, business development and scientific research that heighten market opportunities nationally and internationally.

Areas in focus:
RoboCluster sets focus on four areas within robotics and automation:

1. Industrial Production
2. Biological Production
3. Healthcare
4. Play and Edutainment

The RoboCluster network is composed of a consortium with the following partners:
