Amazon to invest £600m in European robotics and AI over five years
Amazon has announced it will invest €700m (£600m) across its European fulfilment centre network between 2019 and 2024 to enable robotics and AI-powered technologies.
The tech giant has been using its innovation lab in Vercelli, Italy, to develop and test new technologies, which has seen its global mechatronics and sustainable packaging team install more than 1,000 new robotics and AI-powered innovations over five years.
The Amazon Operations Innovation Lab is said to be one of Europe’s most advanced centres for robotic innovation. It will soon be open for tours, allowing the public an insight into how Amazon creates and develops new innovations.
