Back to Episodes73: The Robotics Retrofit: How Veena Radhakrishna is Automating the Other 80% of Supply Chains
Description
Innovation in supply chain is the core focus of today's conversation. Courtney and Katie sit down with Veena Radhakrishna, the Co-Founder and Head of Software at Cartesian Kinetics, to discuss how her team builds robotics specifically for warehouses.
The discussion explores the challenges of automating legacy (brownfield) warehouses, which represent 80% of existing facilities. These sites are often overlooked by the first wave of automation due to high costs, floor prep requirements, and potential downtime. Veena explains how her team’s modular approach allows for rapid, non-disruptive installation in just 8 to 10 weeks—a timeline virtually unheard of in the industry.
