Information for Sponsors and Exhibitors

The 2011 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2011) is inviting sponsors and exhibitors to reserve space at the San Francisco Hilton and Towers.

Exhibition registration is now closed.

Background of the conference

The IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems is one of the premier international conferences in the area of intelligent robotics.  IROS attracts top researchers from many countries to present their original results every year, as well as students, developers, and entrepreneurs looking to catch up on the latest developments in robotics.  The venue this year is San Francisco, at the heart of technological innovation in Silicon Valley.

Benefits of sponsors and exhibitors

  • Exposure to a world-class audience.  San Francisco is a hub of internet startups, and is just north of Silicon Valley, with major hardware and software companies, as well as a thriving robotics industry.  Stanford University, University of California at Berkeley and Santa Cruz, SRI International, and other major research institutions are nearby.  We expect many of these to send their representatives to attend the conference and view the exhibits.  We expect attendance to be at least 1,400 registrants.
  • Opportunity to showcase your products, publications, and organization.  There will be a large exhibit space in the San Francisco Hilton, next to the multimedia presentations of the conference.  Conference attendees will be attracted to exhibitions and robotics demonstrations throughout the course of the conference.
  • Dining and sightseeing in San Francisco is, of course, fantastic!  It’s a great place to network with fellow roboticists.
