Description:
Warehouse automation is at a crossroads. While the industry celebrates uptime metrics and robot counts, real operators are struggling with stalled rollouts, diminishing returns and systems that break under scale. It’s time for an honest conversation about what actually works.

The reality behind the hype
Most automation deployments look good on paper but fail in practice. Leaders invest millions in robotic systems only to discover their synchronization breaks down, their ROI plateaus and their operations teams are left managing complexity instead of driving results.

 

This keynote cuts through the marketing noise to deliver the insights you need to succeed.


What You’ll Learn

 

The scalability blocker

Discover the critical system design mistakes that doom warehouse expansions from day one. We’ll reveal why the approach that works for 2 warehouses becomes your biggest liability at 100.

When automation projects stall: real recovery strategies

Get the playbook for turning underdelivering automation into high-performance operations.

Beyond 2005 thinking: the modern warehouse imperative

Understand why incremental improvements aren’t enough anymore. See how progressive 3PLs like Kenco are completely reimagining their automation approach to extract maximum value from their technology investments.

The software complexity crisis

Uncover the hidden enemy of warehouse ROI: software complexity in multi-vendor environments. Learn how complexity compounds costs and what leading warehouses are doing about it.

Breaking the 300-robot barrier

Most automation systems hit a wall at 300 robots. Discover why this happens and how DeepNav, our revolutionary AI-powered solution developed with Google Cloud, is changing the game for large-scale operations.


Why Attend This Keynote

 

For Warehouse Directors & VPs of Operations Get the strategic insights you need to avoid costly scaling mistakes and build automation programs that actually deliver long-term value.

For Engineering Leaders Learn proven approaches to managing complexity, optimizing multi-vendor environments and designing systems that scale without breaking.

For 3PL Executives Understand how forward-thinking logistics providers are differentiating through advanced automation engineering and what this means for your competitive positioning.

For Technology Leaders Discover the real technical challenges behind warehouse orchestration at scale and explore cutting-edge solutions that are redefining what’s possible.


Featured Technology: DeepNav AI-Powered Orchestration

 

This keynote will also showcase DeepNav, our AI solution developed in partnership with Google Cloud. Unlike traditional orchestration systems that fail at scale, DeepNav uses advanced machine learning to:

  • Dynamically optimize robot coordination in real-time
  • Predict and prevent bottlenecks before they impact operations
  • Adapt to changing warehouse conditions without manual intervention
  • Scale seamlessly from hundreds to thousands of robots

See how AI is transforming warehouse orchestration from reactive management to predictive optimization.
