Speaker
Rajesh Radhakrishnan is an AI and robotics leader with over 15 years’ experience spanning agricultural robotics, biotech, human–computer interaction, and mobility. He was the first co-founding engineer at Blue River Technology, where he built breakthrough AI and computer-vision technology that led to the largest-ever agricultural robotics acquisition by John Deere. At John Deere, Rajesh held multiple leadership roles and was part of the founding team that started the autonomous tractor group, scaling it from just six people to a major business unit and launching the company’s first autonomous tractors to market in three years. Today, he spearheads last-mile delivery innovation at Serve Robotics (Nasdaq: SERV) while advising and investing in emerging robotics startups.
