  • How Autonomous Vehicles Can Help You Build Supply Chain Resiliency
    Aug 29 2022

    The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a shift in the supply chain as companies were forced to face the unpredictable nature of our world. Consumer behaviors, workflow processes, and even the ability to socially interact, changed. With this, the production of goods and services drastically slowed as a result of clogged ports, labor shortages, spikes in demand, material shortages, and much more. These disruptions accelerated the need for businesses to innovate and build a more resilient supply chain. My guest today is Melanie Stone. She recently wrote an article on the ways that autonomous vehicle technology can help us build supply chain resilience and today, we’re going to dive into what she’s discovered.

  • Robotics as a Service
    Jan 24 2022

    My guests today are Ben Landen and Jordan Stern. Ben is the VP of Business Development and Jordan is the Director of Product Management here at Cyngn.

    Today we are going to discuss Robotics as a Service. Robotics as a Service represents a new paradigm where key assets at your organizations are rented instead of owned. ABI research predicts that there will be 1.3 million RaaS installations by 2026, generating over $34 billion in revenue.

    For Cyngn, Robotics as a Service represents the easiest way for us to put autonomous vehicle technology in customer’s hands — without requiring them to staff up a maintenance team or a crew of engineers to get the most value out of such a cutting edge investment.

    In this conversation, we’ll discuss Robotics as a Service and dive into the ways this shifting paradigm will make it easier to tap into new technologies and get work done.
