Presentation of the RAYA- Robotics Applications Award 2023
ISPE’s Robotics Applications of the Year Awards is a new annual award program that recognizes innovative applications of robotics technologies in laboratories and production sites. RAYA is meant as a platform to accelerate the utilization of modern robotics in our industry. This is not only about freeing workplaces from ergonomic challenges and mindless tasks and thus making them more attractive, separating product and people even better, but also increasing availability, efficiency, and quality. The invitation to RAYA 2024 starts January 2024.
The final 2023 of the RAYA- Robotics Applications of the Year Award 2023 took place at ESSERT AG in Bruchsal as part of the ISPE DACH SIG Future Robotics Workshop. More than 60 participants of the workshop from the European pharmaceutical industry experienced pitches from the 20 applicants for the award in 9 categories and voted live on site for the winner of the public award.
