On 5 August 2026, the B.I.T.E Business Conference brought business owners together in the Gunnamatta Room at Mornington Racecourse on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. The day covered business, innovation, technology and excellence, with speakers, lunch and plenty of networking. Rocco was there too.
What Attendees Said
Smart Business Solutions Group, a conference presenter, shared a recap on the day. It said simply: "Rocco the Robot has been a hit with attendees!"
The SMART Business Solutions team went a step further and interviewed Rocco on camera, sharing the video on Instagram after the event.
Why a Robot Fits a Business Innovation Conference
B.I.T.E is about helping businesses think about what's next. A humanoid robot in the room turns that theme into something attendees can see and interact with:
- It brings the innovation theme to life for a business audience between sessions.
- It gives exhibitors and presenters content. The on-camera interview is a good example of a sponsor turning the robot into its own social media moment.
- It works outside the capital cities. Mornington is a regional venue, and Rocco travels for events in regional Victoria and NSW.
Planning a Robot at a Regional Conference
- Confirm travel and bump-in times early. Regional venues often have set access windows.
- Plan interaction windows around arrival, breaks and lunch, when attendees are moving and networking.
- Invite presenters to use the robot. Interviews, photo moments and stage introductions all give sponsors something to share.
