This is Part 2 of the three-part review of RoboCon 2026 in Helsinki.

While waiting for my return flight at the airport, laptop on my knees and still filled with impressions from RoboCon 2026, I began sorting through my notes.
The first draft of this article was written between gate announcements and boarding calls 😉

So here is my very personal three-part review of RoboCon – shaped by my impressions, my focus areas and the topics that had a particular impact on me.
Nevertheless, I naturally wanted to convey as much of the “RoboCon feeling” as possible to those who had stayed at home.

WROBOCON is the ‘little sister’ of the well-known annual Robocon in Helsinki, but it certainly has nothing to hide.
On the contrary: with exciting presentations, workshops and an active community, NiceProject has established a format that is entertaining, educational and human at the same time.

My personal conference review.

RoboCon 2025 is behind me - four days full of exciting presentations, inspiring talks and new ideas.

Now, back home, I’m sorting through my impressions - and there are plenty of them!

This conference is something special for me every year: nowhere else do I experience a community that shares so openly, discusses together and drives new ideas forward.

In this article, I’d like to share my personal highlights with you - the talks that had a particular impact on me and the topics that I will definitely be following up on.

The RoboCon week traditionally starts with the “Unconference Day ” - a day on which the Robot Framework community freely organizes itself and discusses the topics that move it most without a fixed program.

My summary of this day…

The sunny spring weather actually invited us to spend the day outdoors, but Animesh and I persevered: a day of recording 🎙️ 🎥 in the Checkmk studio in the heart of Munich.

Today the time has come: Checkmk 2.3 was released and my “baby” Robotmk is now an integral part of this great monitoring system under the name “Synthetic Monitoring”.
