On behalf of NORCE, SINTEF and the organising partners, we wish to welcome you to the European Robotics Forum 2026 in Stavanger, Norway!
“That was the best ERF ever!”
We hear this every year after yet another successful and hugely enjoyable European Robotics Forum. We hear it from our regular visitors who come back year after year. That’s important to us, because it shows that ERF becomes more attractive every year as people take part in ERF in ever greater numbers. We hear it from our exhibitors, and that’s important to us, too, because our exhibitors bring so much energy, vitality and variety to every ERF. Very importantly we hear it from our sponsors, and that’s hugely important to us, because we want our sponsors to get the best value from their participation, and because their support enables us to keep building ERF bigger and better, year after year.
