Foxglove announced the speaker lineup and programming for Actuate 26, its annual robotics developer conference, taking place August 18–19, 2026, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. The event is expected to draw more than 1,000 attendees from companies deploying robots across autonomous vehicles, drones, humanoids, defense systems, construction, logistics, industrial automation, maritime autonomy, agriculture and general-purpose robotics. Featured speakers include leaders from Wayve, Aurora, Physical Intelligence, Zipline, Shield AI, Google DeepMind and NVIDIA, among others. The two-day conference will cover autonomy, robot foundation models, robot data infrastructure, simulation, fleet operations, debugging, evaluation, deployment and data workflows. Foxglove co-founder and CEO Adrian Macneil stated that “Physical AI has graduated from the lab to the real world, but scaling it is now the defining challenge for the industry.” Actuate has been sold-out since launching in 2024.
