XPONENTIAL 2026 Closes Out with a Focus on the Future of Human-Robot Interaction, Domestic Manufacturing, and Real-World Deployment
XPONENTIAL 2026 wrapped Thursday in Detroit with another full day of programming, packed show floor activity, and forward-looking conversations centered on how robotics and autonomous systems are increasingly intersecting with society, industry, and everyday operations.
The day's keynote featured roboticist and researcher Kate Darling,whose work explores the legal, social, economic, and ethical dimensions of robotics and human-robot interaction. After a week largely focused on operational realities, deployment challenges, manufacturing scale, policy, and mission execution, Darling's keynote offered a deliberate shift in perspective -- stepping back to examine the broader societal implications of increasingly integrated robotic technologies and how humans will ultimately interact, collaborate, and build trust with autonomous systems in the years ahead.
The keynote program closed with remarks from RoboNation President & CEO Daryl Davidson, who highlighted the organization's growing impact on workforce development and talent pipeline initiatives across the autonomy ecosystem, while also offering attendees an early look ahead to XPONENTIAL 2027 in Miami.
Thursday's programming also highlighted growing momentum around domestic manufacturing and supply chain development. A workshop focused on opportunities for U.S. manufacturers to diversify into the UAV and drone supply chain brought together regional leaders and innovators including Blueflite, Lawrence Technological University, Swarm Defense, AG3 Labs, and Cobra Aero to discuss how local industry can play a larger role in strengthening America's autonomous systems industrial base.
End-user programming remained a major focus through the final day of the event, including sessions exploring the use of robotics and autonomous systems in construction and infrastructure applications, where automation continues to reshape workflows, safety, inspection, and project delivery across the built environment.
Public safety and operational deployment also remained front and center, with the Michigan Public Safety UAS Roundtable bringing together stakeholders to discuss drone integration, emergency response, coordination, and real-world operational lessons learned across the state.
Even into the final afternoon, the XPO Hall remained highly active as attendees continued exploring technology demonstrations, meeting with exhibitors, and building partnerships across air, ground, and maritime domains.
After four days of programming, demonstrations, and nonstop collaboration, XPONENTIAL 2026 closes with strong momentum across the autonomy industry.
More than 550 exhibitors and thousands of leaders from industry, government, defense, academia, and investment communities came together in Detroit to help shape what comes next for robotics and autonomous systems.
And if this week made anything clear, it is that staying ahead in autonomy requires not only advancing technology, but continuing to broaden perspective, strengthen collaboration, and think critically about real-world integration at scale.

Owner-operator David Granstaff opens second port to help reduce response times for boaters across the region
*
AURORA, KY - TowBoatUS, North America's largest network of towing ports, today announced the opening of TowBoatUS Aurora, a new location designed to improve response times and expand coverage for recreational boaters on Kentucky Lake.
Owned and operated by U.S. Coast Guard-licensedcaptain David Granstaff, TowBoatUS Aurora is his second TowBoatUS port, complementing existing operations at TowBoatUS Grand Rivers. The new location was established to improve response times and provide more comprehensive coverage for boaters navigating the region's busy waterways.
TowBoatUS Aurora serves Kentucky Lake, one of the largest man-made lakes in the eastern United States, supporting a wide range of recreational boaters who travel from across the region, including St. Louis, Memphis and Nashville. The port also plays a key role along the popular Great Loop route, assisting hundreds of transient boaters each fall.
"Kentucky Lake is a special place for boaters, and we take pride in serving the people who travel here every season," said Granstaff. "We see boaters coming through all season long, including those making their way along the Great Loop. Opening in Aurora allows us to stay close to that traffic, respond faster and continue building on the strong relationships we've anchored here."
TowBoatUS Aurora is based at Ken Lake Marina and operates a 25-foot Metal Shark response vessel powered by a 450-horsepower engine. The port is staffed by four U.S. Coast Guard-licensed captains and provides towing, fuel delivery, jump-starts, repair services, and assistance for boats that run aground. Ken Lake Marina also provides added value for BoatUS members, including discounted fuel, with members receiving 10 cents off per gallon.
Granstaff brings years of experience on the water to the role, having started his career in the yachting industry towing vessels in South Florida before transitioning into marina ownership in Kentucky. He acquired TowBoatUS Grand Rivers as part of the purchase of Ken Lake Marina and has continued to grow his operations, with plans for further expansion in the coming years.
Much like an auto club for recreational boat owners, Boat Owners Association of The United States (BoatUS) offers on-water towing memberships for $130/year for freshwater. In addition to a BoatUS Towing Membership, members also receive more than 25 valuable BoatUS benefits including a subscription to award-winning BoatUS Magazine, free DSC-VHF radio registration and more.
To request on-water assistance, boaters can call the BoatUS toll-free 24/7 Dispatch Center at 800-391-4869, download the free BoatUS App, which connects boaters to the closest local towing captain, call TowBoatUS Aurora directly at (270) 508-2330 or hail on VHF radio Ch. 16.

Texas Business Leaders Release Statement Condemning Outside Interference in Corporate Relocations
A coalition of leading Texas business trade associations today issued a joint statement strongly objecting to the increasing interference of outside influencers and proxy advisory firms attempting to dissuade companies from redomiciling in the Lone Star State. The Texas Association of Business, Texans for Lawsuit Reform, Texas Oil and Gas Association, Texas Civil Justice League, Texas Chemistry Counciland the Texas Association of Manufacturers expressed concern that out-of-state entities are prioritizing political agendas over shareholder value. This coalition, representing thousands of employers across the state, assert that the recent wave of corporate interest in Texas is a direct result of the state's proactive steps to create the most stable, predictable, and sophisticated business environment in the United States.
"Texas has recently enacted landmark corporate governance reforms designed to provide businesses with the clarity and legal certainty they require in a modern economy. Central to this evolution is the establishment of the new Texas Business Courts, which provide a specialized judiciary with the expertise to handle complex commercial disputes efficiently. Unlike the unpredictable legal landscapes found in other jurisdictions, the Texas system is built on a foundation of judicial restraint and legal excellence, ensuring that corporate leadership can focus on growth rather than meritless litigation.
"Despite these clear advantages, certain proxy advisors continue to recommend against Texas moves, revealing a profound conflict of interest rooted in their ties to politically motivated organizations such as CalPERS and various labor unions. These advisors are weaponizing their influence to advance ideological goals that often run contrary to the financial health of the companies they evaluate. Their opposition to Texas is not based on economic data or legal reality, but rather on a desire to maintain leverage over corporate boards via jurisdictions that favor activist agendas over shareholder returns.
"A conflict of interest also exists as certain proxy advisors are in a high-profile legal challenge to block the Texas Attorney General's Office enforcement of a 2025 law that imposes extensive public and directed disclosure obligations on proxy advisory firms. The law applies to firms whose recommendations are not solely in the financial interest of equity holders.
"The coalition calls upon corporate boards and institutional investors to see through the biased noise of these outside influencers. The decision to redomicile in Texas is a decision to embrace a future of economic freedom, judicial predictability, and robust capital markets. Texas business leaders remain committed to defending the state's right to compete and will continue to welcome any company seeking to escape the stagnation of politically charged business climates for the unparalleled opportunities found only in Texas."

MILPITAS, California, May 16 -- SEMI, an association serving the manufacturing supply chain for the electronics industry, issued the following news release:
* * *
SEMI and 23 Member Companies Urge U.S. Congress to Extend Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit
Multi-year AMIC Extension Critical to Bolster Domestic Semiconductor Growth, Competitiveness and Innovation Across Supply Chain
*
WASHINGTON, D.C. - SEMI, the industry association serving the global semiconductor and electronics design and manufacturing supply chain, and 23 member companies on the SEMI Tax Policy Committee, issued aletter to the U.S. Congress urging immediate passage of a multi-year extension of the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (AMIC). The letter's signatories span the end-to-end semiconductor supply chain and underscore how AMIC drives the major investments essential to meet surging market demand.
"The Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit is essential to accelerating semiconductor growth in the United States--especially as semiconductor demand from emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and quantum technologies continues to surge," said Joe Stockunas, SEMI Americas President. "The AMIC's looming expiration threatens business planning and long-term capital investment. Congress must act now to ensure American competitiveness and a resilient supply chain."
The U.S. semiconductor industry is scaling rapidly to power emerging technologies, telecommunications, and bioengineering--but that growth requires billions in sustained upfront investment. The AMIC's 35% investment tax credit helps mitigate those costs. Without extension, the credit's expiration creates a planning cliff that could derail the industry's historic momentum exactly when companies are committing to next-generation projects. A multi-year extension of the AMIC would sustain U.S. investment, strengthen domestic manufacturing, and cement U.S. global technological leadership.
The letter also highlights to Congress the value of expanding eligibility for the credit across the full semiconductor supply chain. Today semiconductor materials, chemicals, and electronic design automation (EDA) tools are excluded from the AMIC, risking domestic investment efforts and ceding ground to global competitors.
SEMI and its members urge Congress to extend the AMIC beyond the 2026 expiration date and stand ready to partner with Congress to make that a reality.

JEFFERSON CITY, Missouri, May 16 (TNSrpt) -- Clean Fuels Alliance America issued the following news release:

As Bronx Sees Rise in Particulate Matter, Study Shows Biodiesel Would Create Immediate and Affordable Improvements
In light of a recent Columbia University study showing fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the Bronx is rising, Clean Fuels Alliance America is reminding New Yorkers of a 2024 study that shows exactly how using biodiesel in place of diesel fuel could immediately lower particulate matter and reduce instances of health challenges including asthma, cancer and more.
The2024 study "Assessment of Health Benefits From Using Biodiesel Fuel for On-Road Transportation Sources - Bronx, NY" found that switching heavy-duty vehicles to biodiesel would lower diesel particulate emissions around 72%. The study was conducted by Trinity Consultants for Clean Fuels Alliance America.
"Adjusting traffic patterns simply moves the air quality problems from one area to another," said Clean Fuels CEO Donnell Rehagen. "The real solution to urban health problems caused by air quality is to simply switch to a cleaner fuel. Increasing biodiesel use would immediately improve air quality for all New Yorkers, including those in the Bronx, at little to no cost and no significant changes to either trucks or fueling infrastructure."
The effects of lowering particulate matter through biodiesel use include reductions in major health challenges such as:
* Asthma: reduction of 204 incidents
* Lung cancer: reduction of 11 incidents
* Mortality (all cause): reduction of 73 incidents
* Work loss days: reduction of 12,566 incidents
"There are concrete steps officials can take today to improve air quality," Rehagen said. "For example, New York could transition its fleet of 50,000 school buses to biodiesel or renewable diesel now, delivering immediate and affordable emissions reductions and public health benefits for school children and communities across the state."

Sacramento, CA - The California Chamber of Commerce today issued the following statement in response to Gov. Gavin Newsom's revised state budget:
"We appreciate the challenge faced by the Governor in offering a state spending plan in these uncertain times.
"From both a policy and political perspective, the road ahead is unclear: an unsettled economy, billions of dollars in costly proposed tax increases aimedfor both state and local ballots, and a divisive election season in California and across the nation.
"State leaders should let some of the dust settle surrounding those flashpoints before adopting the new budget's proposed tax increases.
"These unexpected expenses will burden our entrepreneurs and employers who are driving higher-than-expected revenues and will likely get passed on to consumers already struggling in the face of California's ongoing affordability crisis."

Speakers at the Animal Agriculture Alliance's 2026 Stakeholders Summit addressed pressures impacting animal protein, including animal rights extremism, legislative agendas, animal health and welfare, and supply chain coordination. The 2026 Summit was held May 5-7 in Kansas City, Mo. andincluded more thanregistered in-person attendees. A recording pass is available for purchase through May 21 to access session recordings.
"The 2026 Stakeholders Summit highlighted the importance of the farm and food communities working together to navigate pressures impacting animal protein," said Hannah Thompson-Weeman, Alliance president and CEO. "Speakers emphasized the need for continued collaboration across sectors, the strength that comes with preparation, and the role telling our personal stories can play in reaching consumers. The networking opportunities across attendees was also a particular highlight for this year's event, with several new events added to the agenda."
Preparation is key
A key theme from Summit speakers was that preparation is key to safeguard against agricultural threats. During the session "High Steaks, Real Threats," panelists Andrew Rose, BIO-ISAC, Kristin King, AnzenSage, and Jonathan Lawler, Rural Strategies Group, offered several pieces of advice to attendees, including documenting practices and policies as verification if crisis hits the farm. They also recommended surveying the farm layout and looking at it as honestly as possible for potential weak points. The growth of technology in recent years also highlighted the need for increased cybersecurity measures to ensure data privacy and confidentiality.
A separate session, "What's Heating Up," addressed trends in activism and how farms, processing facilities, and zoos are being targeted. Speakers, including Challis Hobbs, Fur Commission USA, Joe Regenstein, PhD, Cornell and Kansas State University, and Tom Albert, Zoological Association of America, noted that vandalism, trespassing, animal release, and arson are some of the top tactics used to target animal facilities. In some cases, it's been identified that extremists are being hired and paid to attack farms. There's also a growing trend of smaller, family-owned farms being increasingly targeted. "Confidence comes from being prepared," Hobbs stated, quoting legendary basketball coach John Wooden.
Supply chain collaboration
Collaboration - from the farm level to consumer-facing restaurants and retailers - was also a key theme of the event. In the session "Tools of the Trade," speakers Stephanie Wetter, National Pork Board, and Callahan Grund, U.S. CattleTrace, discussed the importance of record keeping and data to support research and innovation. On the farm, it was stressed that employees should be trained, outcomes measured, and data verified to continuously improve protocols. Similarly in the animal health space, tracking disease spread between animals can be communicated with animal health officials to further collaboration and improve response. Supply chain members - wherever they sit - were encouraged to ask for data, engage with current data collection programs, and lean into traceability and transparency as assets rather than risks.
The opening keynote, "Leading Under Pressure" with Sarah Bohnenkamp, touched on supply chain collaboration as well, encouraging attendees to share more data across the supply chain and to walk a mile in each other's shoes to consider perspectives. Stakeholders need to trust one another to do their part and be intentionally curious to foster engagement and understanding. In the closing keynote, Crystal Mackay, LOFT32, stated, "For our industry to show up and grow and meet demand, we need to show up and collaborate."
Tell your story or others will tell it for you
Sessions also recognized the need to continue telling personal stories, noting if the farm and food communities don't tell their own stories, someone else will tell it for them and it may not be accurate. During the session "Leveraging Sustainability to Build Trust," panelists including Nancy Himmelfarb, Himmelfarb Sustainability Consulting, Francois Leger, FPL Food, LLC, and Rachael Wagner, Eocene Environmental Group, recommended sharing values, practices, and policies confidently with the public. A strong stance is more authentic and clearer and will resonate more with the audience. Companies were also encouraged to ensure they are engaging with employees who can be their strongest assets in sharing personal stories and building brand trust.
A recording pass has been made available to purchase for those who were not able to attend the 2026 Summit in person. Session recordings will be posted within two weeks after the event and will only be available to registered attendees and recording pass holders.
