Robots in Business: Creating the Future Today

The Forbes Tech Conference 2024 lit up the Ukrainian tech scene! On November 22, 57 top speakers – leaders of international corporations, innovators, and leading industry experts – gathered in Kyiv, including Mykhailo Fedorov, Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine, Minister of Digital Transformation. Together, the tech community discussed the hottest topics, such as the potential of digitalization, artificial intelligence, and robotics for state and business development.
In the panel discussion, Oleksandr Klymenko, Founder and CEO of KAPELOU, together with Igor Khyzhnyak, CEO of COMFY, and Antonina Iermeichuk, COO of Deus Robotics, shared practical solutions that help companies overcome modern challenges and increase the efficiency of business processes through robotics.
No Mistakes, no Fatigue – Business Optimization through Robotic Solutions
The panel discussion “Robots in the Service of Business: Where, when and for which period will ‘hardware’ replace humans?” attracted particular attention. Moderator Igor Khyzhnyak, CEO of COMFY, emphasized that the foundations of the future can be laid today with robotic solutions. Panelists Oleksandr Klymenko, founder and CEO of KAPELOU, and Antonina Iermeichuk, COO of Deus Robotics, confirmed an important message: robotization of business processes is not a fantasy, but a reality that is available right now.
The speakers agreed that the introduction of robots is a vital necessity for Ukrainian companies, not a choice. Robots are able to perform routine and physically demanding work without interruptions, days off, and errors, which speeds up processes many times over. This in turn helps to reduce operating costs, increase efficiency, and create a more comfortable and safer work environment.
Robot Assistants: How Technology is Changing the Role of the Worker
Employees should not be afraid of layoffs due to the introduction of robotic technologies: robots are partners, not competitors. The introduction of the latest technologies allows employees to focus on more important and creative tasks, improve their expertise, and develop new skills. Robots can easily and accurately perform monotonous work, relieving people of stress due to routine and physical exertion. In particular, robots, together with the “Goods to Person” technology, significantly reduce the routes of operators, ensure the accuracy of product picking, and significantly speed up the order picking process.
Robotization – New Horizons for Business
From automation to sustainable efficiency gains, modern technologies are already helping businesses reach new heights.
Oleksandr Klymenko, founder and CEO of KAPELOU, said: “Robotization is about speed, impeccable quality, minimizing the human factor, and making the most of every square meter of space. Ukrainian companies have already begun to move towards robotization. We are ready to point out the most effective and fastest way to this goal – to help implement optimal solutions for growth in accordance with the needs of the client”.
