XSQUARE Technologies is a Singapore-based intralogistics company that builds autonomous forklifts and the Xymphony warehouse orchestration software to automate warehouses without requiring reconfiguration. Founded in 2019 and backed by Goldbell Group's four decades of material-handling expertise, XSQUARE pairs its own line of AGVs with an AI-driven control layer, offered largely through a Robots-as-a-Service subscription model. Its clients include Coca-Cola, GSK and Katoen Natie, and it raised S$10.5 million in Series A funding in May 2024 led by Wavemaker Partners.
Volley Automation builds AI-enabled robotic parking systems that use fleets of autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs) and proprietary control software to shuttle cars into optimized storage inside garages. The result is up to 2x denser parking, no below-grade digging, valet-like convenience without attendants, and lower embodied carbon than a conventional concrete ramp garage. Founded in 2018 and now headquartered in Denver, Volley works with developers on projects across New York, Nashville, California, Florida and Massachusetts.
Mark Messina is Managing Director and CEO of ANSCER Robotics Americas, the U.S. arm of a Bengaluru-based hybrid autonomous mobile robot company. With more than 25 years across engineering, manufacturing and operations, he helped build the modern warehouse-robot industry from the inside - joining Amazon during the Kiva Systems acquisition, later working on Amazon Prime Air drones, IoT at Mattel, and leading U.S. expansions for Geek+ and Addverb. He now runs ANSCER's Austin, Texas headquarters, championing a frugal, ROI-first approach to robotics and a Robots-as-a-Service model built to put automation within reach of small operators.
Sam Richardson is the CEO of Volley Automation, a robotics and software company that uses AI-enabled automated guided vehicles to densify parking garages, fitting up to twice as many cars in smaller footprints. A former Hamilton College quarterback turned channel-sales and operations leader at companies like Hewlett-Packard, Fellowes Brands and SGS & Co, he now runs Volley from a 35,000-square-foot research and demo facility the company opened in Denver in 2026 after relocating from South San Francisco. Based in Nashville, he is steering robotic parking projects across New York, Tennessee, Florida, California and Massachusetts.
ANSCER Robotics is a Bengaluru-based industrial automation company that builds hybrid autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) blending the smart navigation of AMRs with the heavy-lift precision of automated guided vehicles. Its robots and fleet-management software move materials inside factories, warehouses and dock areas, sold partly on a Robots-as-a-Service model. After a $5.4M Series A in 2026 led by IAN Alpha Fund, the company is expanding from India and Southeast Asia into North America.
