Both venues will serve as official partners, hosting a welcome brunch, facility tours, and speaker panels that highlight the region’s strengths in applied technology and entrepreneurship.
Attendees will not only hear about emerging innovations—they will experience them firsthand. Throughout the afternoon, robots from AlphaRobotics will circulate among guests, serving refreshments and demonstrating how robotics can create interactive, practical experiences in everyday settings.
Two featured panels at the Curiosity Lab will offer deeper insights into the challenges and opportunities of bringing technology to market:
- From Prototype to Real-World Impact (1–2 p.m.)
Many startups face a critical next step after building a promising technology: proving it works outside the lab. Founders who have tested their innovations in Peachtree Corners will share how real-world deployments led to new customers, product improvements, partnerships, and business growth. The discussion is aimed at entrepreneurs, innovation supporters, and anyone curious about how new technologies move into daily life. - The Next Wave of Venture Investing: Building Companies for the Physical World (2:15–3:15 p.m.)
Developing companies in robotics, mobility, energy, advanced infrastructure, and other physical-world technologies presents distinct hurdles that pure software startups often avoid. Panelists will explore how founders validate demand, attract capital, prepare for manufacturing, and build scalable organizations. Leaders experienced in launching, funding, testing, and scaling ambitious technical ventures will provide an inside look at turning complex innovation into successful businesses.
By hosting the kick-off, Peachtree Corners continues to position itself as a hub where technology is developed, tested, and brought to market.
The combination of venue tours, expert conversations, and live robotic demonstrations promises to give participants a tangible sense of the region’s innovation momentum as Atlanta Tech Week gets underway.
