GMR Group sets up Robotics Centre of Excellence

The GMR Group has established a Robotics Centre of Excellence (CoE) as part of the expansion of GMR Innovex, the group's innovation vertical.

The CoE will serve as a hub for robotics innovation, research and development, and collaboration.

"As the airport and aviation eco-system grow, our Robotics COE will transform the industry with cutting-edge technology and solutions that will improve efficiency, safety, and sustainability," said SGK Kishore, Executive Director-South Airports and Chief Innovation Officer, in a statement.

"We hope to use this new technology across the group to not only improve business operations, but also to provide a fantastic passenger and customer experience. We are excited to partner with industry players that would help drive transformative change in the aviation industry and develop a better future for all.”

GMR Innovex signed an MOU with Peppermint, SINE IIT Bombay, and Flo Mobility to investigate opportunities and identify robotics technology-related use cases for airports and ancillary businesses. The Robotics CoE will be the driving force behind the next wave of robotics innovation, focusing on developing cost-efficient and cost-effective solutions.

The centre will identify and incubate robotics start-ups, as well as co-develop innovative robotics products for the airport and aviation eco-system.

According to the release, it will drive innovation and provide the necessary infrastructure, including a specially designed robotics lab for robotics start-ups, as well as drive thought leadership and collaboration with industry partners, leverage expertise, and invest in potential start-ups.
