Cognex CEO to Join AI and Robotics Leaders at Automate 2026 Opening Keynote on the Future of Automation

June 16, 2026 – Natick, MA – Cognex Corporation (NASDAQ: CGNX), the global technology leader in industrial machine vision, announced that CEO Matt Moschner will participate in the opening keynote, “The State of the Automation Industry: Leadership Roundtable,” at Automate 2026, North America’s largest robotics and automation event.

The session will be held on Monday, June 22 at 9:00 a.m. CT in the Grand Ballroom at McCormick Place. Joined by leaders from FANUC America, Schneider Electric, and Intrinsic, Moschner will discuss the forces reshaping the industry, including advances in AI, robotics, and industrial connectivity, as well as the implications for workforce, supply chains, and global competitiveness.

“The industry is moving from automation that follows rules to systems that can adapt, learn, and make decisions,” said Moschner. “AI is fundamentally changing what’s possible—not just in how machines see, but in how they understand and act. The companies that succeed will be those that scale those capabilities across their operations. I’m looking forward to sharing perspectives with industry peers on where this transformation goes next.”
