Episode 82 | Super Powering Industrial Robotics Teams | Stefan Seltz-Axmacher

In this episode, I sit down with Stefan Seltz-Axmacher, CEO and co-founder of Polymath Robotics, to discuss how their modular autonomy solutions are revolutionizing industrial robotics. Stefan shares the story behind founding Polymath and how his previous experience at Starsky Robotics shaped his vision for creating reusable, scalable autonomy stacks.

We explore the challenges of retrofitting legacy machinery, the inefficiencies of rebuilding autonomy stacks, and why the future of robotics lies in modular solutions that allow companies to focus on creating real value. Stefan also dives into market dynamics, funding challenges in today’s landscape, and why robotics startups must think differently about growth.

If you’re curious about how robotics is solving critical labor shortages and unlocking new opportunities across industries like mining, agriculture, and logistics, this episode is for you.
