Humanoid robotics is advancing at a pace that's hard to ignore – and the implications for warehouse operations are significant. In this session, two supply chain experts explore the latest developments in humanoid technology and what real-world deployment could look like for logistics businesses today.

The conversation will cover where humanoids genuinely stand: the hardware is sophisticated, the AI is closing the gap, and the use cases are becoming harder to dismiss. From case picking to flexible fulfilment, humanoids may offer a compelling alternative to traditional high-capital automation – particularly for mid-sized operators who need smarter solutions within their existing infrastructure.

This is a fast-moving space with serious commercial potential, and this session will examine what's real, what's coming, and what it means for how we think about the automated warehouse of the future.
