September 13, 20244 min readDirk Brisse

The growth forecasts for service robotics are very positive. The market is expected to grow considerably in the coming years, driven in particular by rising demand in various sectors such as hospitality, healthcare, retail and logistics.

Service robotics partnerships

According to various reports, the following developments could occur:

Market size:

The global market for service robots could reach a size of over USD 100 billion by 2028, with an annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 25-30%.

Growth drivers:

Demographic change: ageing societies, especially in industrialised countries, are driving demand for robotics solutions in healthcare.

Automation: in sectors such as hospitality and retail, the need for automation to increase efficiency is growing ever larger.

Advances in AI and sensor technology: improved artificial intelligence and sensor technology enable service robots to carry out more complex tasks and act more autonomously in dynamic environments.

Challenges:

Regulatory requirements and safety aspects represent initial hurdles, but these are expected to be overcome quickly as service robots gain acceptance, which should further accelerate growth.

The industry is developing dynamically, and especially through progress in AI and machine learning, service robotics is becoming ever more versatile.

Together with our partners, we will ensure that Germany plays a key role as a technology and innovation location and continues to expand the market.

In addition, our partners have the opportunity, if they wish, to contribute to the development of further capabilities for service robots. This allows us to address an even broader range of application areas in the future and to position ourselves additionally in this growing market.

As a member of the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), we are always at the pulse of the latest developments in robotics. We are already engaging intensively with the field of humanoid robotics and, as soon as production costs reach a market-viable level, we will integrate corresponding solutions into the network.

Nationwide presence with a limited number of partners

We are looking for 16 partners, ideally innovative start-ups who share our passion for robotics, to build our nationwide network across Germany.

Dealer network and purchasing cooperative
