Connecting With the Robotics Ecosystem in the United States 🇺🇸

Updated: 7 days ago


Our trip to the United States had a clear intention from the very beginning: we knew this journey would connect us with teams who share our vision of training the new workforce of the future. That was our mission—immersing ourselves in the ecosystem where humanoid robotics, teleoperation, and digital twins are rapidly evolving, meeting the builders shaping the next era, and laying the foundations for what we will create together.



We expected an intense agenda, but the reality far exceeded anything we had imagined. What unfolded was a month-long journey of validation, strategic alignment, and absolute clarity. We connected with the right people, the right teams, and the right environments—confirming not only where the future is being built, but where we need to be to build ours.



Arrival: A RobotsHouse 🫶 That Became Our Operations Center


We arrived in the United States on October 21, and from the very first moment, the energy inside The RobotsHouse was electric. The entire Robots For Humanity team was together under one roof, transforming the space into a fully functional operations center within hours. Workstations, sensors, measurement tools, laptops, and equipment took over the living room. It was clear from day one: this wasn’t a trip. It was a deployment.

Integration of the Digital Twin for InOrbit Space for Globant Converge 🇦🇷 🇺🇸


We developed a complete Digital Twin of the InOrbit Space to showcase at Converge, Globant’s event on December 10. This project allowed us to demonstrate, in a concrete way, how InOrbit’s orchestration platform integrates seamlessly with the humanoid robotics technology developed by Robots For Humanity.


To achieve this, our team acquired the necessary equipment, scanned and measured the entire environment, and rebuilt the space with high-fidelity digital precision. This Digital Twin enables teleoperation, task simulation, and real-time visualization of the interaction between the physical robot and its virtual representation.

TechCrunch SF 💚:


We then attended TechCrunch Disrupt. Without access to the main pass, the experience was more limited this time. The event was solid—it delivered—but it was not a highlight of the trip. Still, it provided context and reaffirmed that, for robotics and DeepTech, the most valuable interactions often happen in more technical and focused environments.

November 10: Robots For Humanity Kick-Off in San Francisco 🇺🇸


On November 10, we delivered a talk that became one of the defining moments of the trip. It coincided with the official launch of our company at AWS, supported by Binbash and NVIDIA. The audience’s response was exceptional, and the interest in our vision—humanoids, safe teleoperation, and simulation-to-reality learning—confirmed that we are building something truly relevant.

Coincidentally, the same day we held our official launch at AWS was also the final deadline for Y Combinator—so we applied. It felt symbolic: presenting Robots For Humanity to the world while simultaneously taking a step toward one of the most influential accelerators in the global tech ecosystem. The timing was not planned, but it reinforced the momentum of everything that was unfolding during the trip.

Visit to Uber: AI Autonomous Team 🫶


We also visited Uber, specifically the AI Autonomous team. The conversation focused on potential use cases involving humanoid , and how these systems could integrate into some of their operational workflows. It was a strategic and high-value meeting that helped us understand how world-leading companies are thinking about robotics, automation, and the future of assisted work.

Our visit to NVIDIA was another highlight. We discussed simulation-to-real pipelines, training models, data workflows, and how humanoid robots can leverage their advances. We had already been working in this direction, but seeing it from the inside allowed us to refine our roadmap with greater precision.

Robots-as-a-Service: Financing the Future, Together with María from Sharpei


Another key moment of the trip was our conversation with María from Sharpei, where we realized how critical it is to integrate financing directly into our offering. For many companies, adopting humanoid robots is not just a technological decision—it is a financial one.

By collaborating with Sharpei, we can offer clients a seamless leasing system fully aligned with our RaaS model, reducing friction and accelerating deployment. This integration will allow customers to adopt robots without upfront capital, while giving them a clear, predictable cost structure tied to real operational value.

This marks an important step toward making humanoid robotics accessible, scalable, and financially viable for organizations across the world.


More updates coming soon.

Founders Inc: The Builders of the Future 🦾


One of the most impactful moments of the trip was our visit to Founders Inc. It is an extraordinary space designed by and for founders working on hardware, robotics, biotech, and deep technology. Inside, teams are building robotic hands, actuators, sensors, locomotion systems, and full humanoid platforms—everything that defines the frontier of modern robotics.


We were introduced to the space by Juan from ATOS, and we are deeply grateful to him for opening the doors of his workplace and showing us what they are building. ATOS is developing an assistive AI-powered device designed to support older adults in their daily lives—technology with profound human impact.

The REK, team is the group building the “UFC of Robots” in the United States. Connecting with startups that are committed to transforming how things are done today is exactly the kind of ecosystem we want to be part of.another remarkable hardware team pushing boundaries in their own domain. The engineering quality, the prototypes, and the ingenuity of their approach were truly inspiring. It was a powerful reminder of the level of innovation that happens when builders have the right environment.

Walking out of Founders Inc, the conclusion was instant and unanimous:


If we want to be truly part of the global humanoid robotics ecosystem, we need to be physically in San Francisco ❤️


Before ending the trip, we submitted our application to The Founders Inc, aiming to join the community and establish our training center there in January 2026.

AWS Bootcamp: A Strong Regional Finish


The last days of the trip were spent at the AWS Bootcamp, where we worked on architecture, scalability, and data flows. We also connected with several Latin American DeepTech startups that are building impressive projects, opening doors for collaboration across the region.

Conclusion: A Strategic Turning Point for Robots For Humanity


Conclusion: A Strategic Turning Point for Robots For Humanity


The trip was more than a sequence of meetings—it was a strategic turning point. Spending one full month in San Francisco allowed us to validate, once again, our vision: this is where we need to build our technology, surrounded by the ecosystem that is shaping the future of humanoid robotics, teleoperation, and digital twins.


We also had the opportunity to contribute to the community. Our CTO, Santiago Braña, delivered a talk at InOrbit, sharing our approach to teleoperation, the development of high-fidelity Digital Twins, and the operational challenges of deploying humanoid robotics in real industrial environments. His presentation helped position Robots For Humanity within the technical discussions that are defining the next generation of robotics infrastructure.


Throughout the trip, we confirmed something essential:

To meaningfully integrate into the global humanoid robotics and advanced technology ecosystem, we must be in San Francisco.


The density of talent, the speed at which innovation happens, and the collaborative mindset of the community make this city the epicenter of what is coming next. During this trip, we met the people, teams, and potential partners who can help us take our first major steps.


That is why our next goal is to join The Founders Inc and establish our training and development center there in early 2026.


This journey gave us clarity, direction, and confirmation that Robots For Humanity has a real role to play at the frontier of global robotics. And this is only the beginning.
