ICRA 2029 — IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation

ICRA 2029 is the IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, held 7-12 May 2029 at the Allianz MiCo — Milano Convention Centre (Piazzale Carlo Magno 1) in Milan, Italy. It is the flagship conference of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, which describes it as the premier international forum for robotics researchers to present their work, and organisers expect more than 7,000 participants. The paper submission deadline is already published as 15 September 2028. Scientific and organisational leadership sits with Politecnico di Milano: Paolo Rocco and Elena De Momi as General Chairs, Matteo Matteucci as Local Chair and Andrea M. Zanchettin as Publication Chair, all faculty in the Degree Program in Automation and Control Engineering. ICRA is where embodied AI, robot learning, manipulation and autonomous-systems results are peer-reviewed each year.

For a CTO or head of automation in manufacturing, logistics, automotive or warehousing, ICRA is the single best read on what robotics will actually be capable of two to three years out, before any of it is packaged as a product. The technical programme is where embodied AI, manipulation, robot learning and autonomous navigation results are first validated, so it separates genuine capability gains from vendor marketing. The Milan edition is organised by Politecnico di Milano's automation faculty and sits inside northern Italy's industrial-automation cluster, which makes it an efficient trip for pairing research access with supplier and integrator meetings. The published September 2028 paper deadline also lets an internal research team plan a submission well in advance.

• ✓Peer-reviewed main conference papers track, with submissions due 15 September 2028
• ✓IEEE RAS flagship programme covering the full robotics and automation research field
• ✓Hosted at Allianz MiCo — Milano Convention Centre (Piazzale Carlo Magno 1), sized for more than 7,000 participants
• ✓Organising committee drawn from Politecnico di Milano — Paolo Rocco and Elena De Momi (General Chairs), Matteo Matteucci (Local Chair), Andrea M. Zanchettin (Publication Chair)

• ★The IEEE Robotics and Automation Society's flagship conference, which the Society describes as the premier international forum for robotics researchers to present their work
• ★The paper submission deadline is already published — 15 September 2028 — giving research groups and industrial labs more than two years of planning visibility, which is rare this far out
• ★Organised by Politecnico di Milano's Automation and Control Engineering faculty, placing the meeting inside Italy's industrial-automation and manufacturing cluster rather than in a purely academic setting
• ★Expected to draw over 7,000 participants at the Allianz MiCo — Milano Convention Centre, a scale that supports a substantial industrial exhibition alongside the technical programme
