Physical AI is leaving the laboratory. Companies need to learn how to use it.

Asinov is a new Swiss initiative dedicated to embodied intelligence and the professional deployment of humanoid robots. Developed in connection with 42 Lausanne, its purpose is not primarily to train people to build robots, but to prepare professionals and companies to understand where humanoids can create value and how to integrate them into real working environments.

The program combines learning by doing, experimentation and real-life projects across industry, healthcare, logistics, services and other professional environments. Each participant works toward the concrete deployment of a robotic system, with particular attention to human-machine interaction, operational relevance, acceptance and impact.

In parallel, Asinov will launch an Executive Program for senior executives and decision-makers who need to understand the strategic implications of Physical AI without becoming robotics specialists. The program will consist of four intensive weeks spread over one year, including two weeks in China across Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing, providing direct exposure to the companies, technologies, manufacturing capabilities and applications currently shaping the humanoid robotics revolution. The first Executive Program will also start in October 2026.

The program is complemented by an immersion in Shanghai, connecting Swiss application expertise with one of the world’s most dynamic robotics ecosystems.
