AWS is launching a billion dollar investment programme to support partners in customer fulfilment, logistics, and the supply chain.
Dubbed the Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund (AIIF), the programme will invest in those that increase delivery speed and further improve employees’ experience working in the warehousing and logistics fields.
Initially, AWS will focus on wearable technology enhancing safety in fulfilment buildings and robotics designed to complement and coexist with people’s lives.
Outfits which look likely to collect are Modjoul, Vimaan, Agility Robotics, BionicHIVE and Mantis Robotics.
