Interview with Bruce Welty, co-founder of Locus Robotics

My view is that companies (1) start with a problem that is suited to be solved by a robotic solution, then (2) design and build a robot that solves that problem and finally (3) build a business model that makes the robot the best economic solution to the problem.

Patent Strategy Is Critical for Robotics Innovations

Patents are extremely important for robotics companies in all stages. For early-stage companies, patents are often the only way for investors to place a value on a companys technology during development. In this way, patents can make up a significantly greater portion of enterprise value for early-stage robotics companies.
