Humanoids Summit Returns to Silicon Valley

Global Showcase of Cutting-Edge Humanoid Robotics and Physical AI, Featuring Dozens of Exhibits and the Industry’s Leading Voices

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#humanoids–The Humanoids Summit is back for its annual Silicon Valley event, the anchor of its global series and the world’s largest gathering focused exclusively on humanoid robotics. The event takes place December 11-12 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA, and arrives at a moment when humanoids and physical AI are widely viewed as the most transformational technology class of the coming decade.


Organized and produced by ALM Ventures, this year’s program continues the Summit’s focus on mass production, commercialization, and global capital allocation. Advances in dexterity, perception, actuation, locomotion, unified whole-body control and foundation, and world-model architectures are now pushing systems from controlled demos into early autonomous operation and deployment.

“Humanoid robotics is advancing at a pace that’s beginning to reshape global industry,” said Modar Alaoui, founder and chair of the Humanoids Summit and general partner at ALM Ventures. “This year’s summit brings together the leaders turning that momentum into reality—moving humanoids from controlled demos to scalable, autonomous systems.”

The Summit will feature live humanoid robot demonstrations, with more than 65 speakers and 60 exhibiting companies participating. Speakers from Google DeepMind, Apptronik, XPeng, Boston Dynamics, Fourier Intelligence, Agility Robotics, Galbot, Sanctuary AI, NASA, Booster Robotics, Robot Era, High Torque Robotics and many other leading companies in the global humanoid ecosystem will address engineering progress, mass production and commercialization pathways. McKinsey & Company will present key findings from its October 2025 report: Humanoid robots: Crossing the chasm from concept to commercial reality

Attendance is expected to approach 2,000 participants, representing more than 400 companies and 40 countries across Europe, Asia and the Middle East, including major Fortune-listed enterprises.

The 2025 Silicon Valley edition follows the Summit’s expansion to London earlier in the year and precedes its first Asian edition, reflecting rising international coordination across the humanoid robotics ecosystem. The event also coincides with International Humanoids Day, celebrated annually on December 12, a day conceived by the Humanoids Summit organizers to highlight global progress in humanoid robotics.

In a dedicated session, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will outline ongoing U.S. work on humanoid performance standards designed to accelerate national adoption.

Panel discussions will be moderated by journalists from Bloomberg, The Washington Post, The Information, Forbes and Nikkei, with documentary crews and live television coverage also planned on site.

The program will also include rising-startup pitches evaluated by a panel of global venture capital firms. The attendee base spans technology buyers, major corporates, global investors, startups and ecosystem suppliers.

The event will acknowledge the forthcoming launch of the Bay Area Robotics Association, a new member-driven organization connecting robotics and AI companies across the region and internationally.
