How close are we to having a humanoid robot living in our own living rooms? 1X Founder & CEO Bernt Børnich has spent the past 10 years chasing one mission — building robots that move, learn, and live among people. From early inspiration with ASIMO to enduring countless failures, he’s kept going for one reason: the belief that robots can redefine the limits of human labor. After years of trial and error, Bernt now envisions a world where, within just few years, humanoid robots will be part of our everyday lives. In robotics, failure is inevitable. But true innovation depends on how well you embrace it — even under pressure. Watch now to see how a robotics startup with no clear market or revenue has stayed competitive and alive. 00:00 Intro 02:00 When a Humanoid Robot Becomes Your Roommate 05:45 Why Building Humanoids Is a Whole New Level 09:54 In This Industry, Failure Comes First 11:43 How Robots Learn 12:43 Build Before the Market Exists 14:21 Lessons for Deep Tech Founders 16:00 Build Something That Excites People #robotics #humanoidrobot #NEO EO stands for Entrepreneurship & Opportunities.
