Dr. I-Ming Chen of Singapore's Nanyang Technological University and General Chair of this year's ICRA, stated that according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), Japan, Korea, and China are the leading markets for industrial robotics, with the Asia Pacific industrial robotics industry contributing to over 50% of overall market revenue. This points to the importance of the Asia Pacific in the global robotics industry and is why ICRA 2017 took place in Singapore, he said. ITRI's Dr. Hu, who is also a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at National Chiao Tung University, will serve as an Industrial Forum Chair at ICRA 2017 committee. Dr. Hu's background in both academic and research communities will be conducive to forging cooperation with the industrial sector.
