Salem, New Hampshire (January 28, 2026) – AutoStore, the global leader in technology-driven, intelligent order fulfillment solutions, announces a partnership with the RoboJackets at the Georgia Institute of Technology, a student-run robotics organization at one of the world’s highest-ranked engineering universities. The collaboration includes sponsorship of multiple robots across collegiate competitions and direct engagement with robotics and engineering students.
“Partnering with Georgia Tech and RoboJackets connects our real-world engineering challenges with the next generation of robotics and AI talent,” says Parth Joshi, Chief Product Officer at AutoStore. “AutoStore builds systems where software, data, and robotics operate at industrial scale, and this collaboration gives students exposure to the kinds of complex, real-world problems we solve every day.”
As part of the partnership, AutoStore team members met with approximately 200 engineering and robotics students at Georgia Tech on January 22 to share how AutoStore designs and operates large-scale automated fulfillment systems used by global retailers and logistics providers. The session focused on concrete system challenges, including robot coordination, intelligent software, and building reliable automation that operates continuously at scale.
