About this strategy
The National Robotics Strategy is our plan for Australia’s robotics ecosystem.
It will help build a stronger, more unified robotics industry and harness the benefits of robotics and automation across our economy.
Developing, manufacturing and using these technologies in Australia will:
- improve productivity
- grow our economy
- help revive Australian manufacturing
- combat major challenges like climate change, our ageing population, geopolitical risks, labour market pressures and the cost of living.
We developed this strategy in consultation with the robotics industry, researchers, state and territory governments and the Australian public. It was guided by an advisory committee of Australian robotics and technology experts.
