Ilya Katsov, CTO, Americas at Grid Dynamics, will lead a session on operationalizing Physical AI.
Grid Dynamics has Physical AI programs in logistics, autonomous driving, and robotic manipulation.
The GAIN Platform supports digital twin simulation and robotic manipulation solutions.
Grid Dynamics' participation builds on its strategic partnerships with NVIDIA and Doosan Robotics, expanding its Physical AI capabilities to advance enterprise robotics applications. Ilya Katsov, CTO, Americas at Grid Dynamics, will lead a session titled "Operationalizing Physical AI: Lessons From the Field." The session will draw on Grid Dynamics' experience deploying Physical AI, including humanoid robots in production environments, with a focus on scaling systems beyond proof of concept. Grid Dynamics has Physical AI programs including logistics automation using humanoid robots, autonomous driving stack and simulation for construction and agricultural equipment, robotic manipulation for EV battery manufacturing and disassembly, and robot simulation and synthetic data generation for warehouse automation. These programs reflect several of the summit's core areas of focus.
"The opportunity in Physical AI isn't simply better robots. It's bringing intelligence into the physical economy—factories, warehouses, energy systems, transportation and infrastructure. And getting there requires something no company can do alone: co-innovation between enterprises that understand the problems, startups building the intelligence, and investors willing to fund the journey from pilot to production," said Anik Bose, Founder of EAIGG.
"Nearly every manufacturing company we talk to runs Physical AI pilots. Far fewer have gotten one to perform reliably in a production environment. Given the current state of foundational models, we've learned that a productization platform that enables fast evaluation and composition of available components, cost-efficient data collection, and a continuous improvement flywheel is a key success factor," said Ilya Katsov, CTO, Americas at Grid Dynamics.
Grid Dynamics' Physical AI work is supported by its GAIN Platform for Physical AI, which provides a foundation for digital twin simulation and robotic manipulation solutions for manufacturing. The platform is designed for complex robotics use cases, including inspection of complex-geometry objects, assembly with variability, and packaging of unseen or deformable items.
