Robotics Expert & Serial Entrepreneur Focused on Developing Social Robots

Jérôme Monceaux is an engineer, entrepreneur, and expert in robotics, especially known for his work in designing and developing social robots. He is the founder and CEO of Enchanted Tools, a Paris-based company that creates robots to improve lives through technology, and is an advocate for the seamless integration of technology into our lives.

Co-founder of Aldebaran Robotics (now SoftBank Robotics), Monceaux birthed the first "real life" humanoid robots Pepper and Nao. These robots gained international recognition for their ability to interact with people in educational, therapeutic, and retail settings.

As a result, Monceaux has been at the forefront of developing robots that not only perform functional tasks but also foster emotional and social connections with users. His work continues to influence the evolution of robotics, particularly in making technology more accessible and adaptable to everyday human environments.
