NEURA Robotics, a manufacturer of cognitive robots, announced the appointment of Dr. Oliver Wolst as Chief Technology Officer (CTO). With his career at Bosch and extensive expertise in the automotive and electronics industries, Dr. Wolst will look to further drive NEURA Robotics' technological advancements in the field of cognitive robotics.

He succeeds Jens Fabrowsky, who will transition to the role of Chief Operating Officer (COO), focusing on scaling NEURA's rapidly growing product business.

Drive NEURA innovation in robotics

In his new role, Dr. Wolst will spearhead innovation in intelligent and cognitive robotics, accelerating product development and shaping the company's technology roadmap, according to NEURA Robotics.

"Cognitive robotics is the most exciting technology field of our time," said Dr. Wolst. "Its potential to revolutionize our lives is immense. NEURA Robotics uniquely combines innovative strength, unwavering commitment, and deep expertise. I am thrilled to join this dynamic environment and contribute to shaping the future of cognitive robotics."

Dr. Wolst brings over two decades of experience in the automotive and electronics industries. He most recently served as global president of the automotive semiconductor integrated circuits division at Bosch. Previously, he was the regional president of automotive electronics in Australia and head of the Research and Technology Centre Asia Pacific in Singapore, where he led international teams in developing technologies and expanding business operations.

"As the robotics industry transitions from niche to mass market, we are strengthening our leadership team with the addition of Dr. Wolst,” said David Reger, CEO and founder of NEURA Robotics. “His exceptional expertise from the automotive and electronics industries complements our existing strengths perfectly. With Dr. Wolst's guidance, we will significantly advance cognitive robotics and solidify our position as a technology leader."

Dr. Wolst holds a doctorate in physics and possesses in-depth knowledge of sensor development, semiconductor technology, and automotive electronics. NEURA said that he has a proven track record in developing technology and product strategies, as well as scaling multinational research and development teams.

NEURA Robotics, which was founded in 2019, featured prominently at Automate 2024 in Chicago, with a booth of over 50 robots on display at the show.
