On April 3-5, 2025, We Robot is coming to Canada! Since We Robot’s inception in 2012, this peer-reviewed interdisciplinary conference has brought together leading scholars and practitioners to discuss legal and policy questions relating to robots.
We Robot 2025 will be hosted by Windsor Law in the beautiful new Ron W. Ianni building, located beside the busiest international commercial crossing between Canada and the United States.
The city and the University of Windsor sit on the traditional territory of the Three Fires Confederacy of First Nations, which includes the Ojibwa, the Odawa, and the Potawatomi. Waawiiatanong (“Where the River Bends” in Anishinaabemowin) has served as a meeting place for centuries.
We Robot is the most exciting interdisciplinary conference on the legal and policy questions relating to robots. The increasing sophistication of robots and their widespread introduction everywhere—from the battlefield to the home, from hospitals to public spaces—disrupts existing legal regimes and requires new thinking on policy issues.
If you are on the front lines of robot theory, design, or development, we hope to see you here in Windsor. Come join the conversations between the people designing, building, and deploying robots, and the people who design or influence the legal and social structures in which robots will operate.
