Richard Lightbound, CEO EMEA of Robo Global (NASDAQ:ROBO), talks to Proactive about the company and its Robotics & Automation Index, which enables investors to ‘get some sort of access and understanding’ of what is going on the automation space.

Although many companies carry ‘the label robotics’ in the name, they are massively different, therefore the Robotics & Automation Index helps, he said.

He explained: “We’ve got twelve subsectors, four related to technology, eight related to what we call applications areas like factor robotics, healthcare robotics, consumer robotics.”
