Founding Partner | BrightLNK

Kevin Brisebois is a Founding Partner at BrightLNK where he help startups, emerging brands, and global enterprises turn complex hardware ideas into production-ready products with supply chains that can actually deliver.

Over the past 15+ years living in Hong Kong, he has worked across the U.S., Europe, China, and SE Asia to build and scale hardware programs end-to-end from concept through mass production. Brisebois’ focus is on creating resilient, efficient, and transparent supply networks so teams can move faster, reduce risk, and scale with confidence.

He leads BrightLINK’s supply chain solutions, working with global cross-functional teams that connect design, engineering, and on-the-ground factory execution. The goal is simple: ensure every program moves from concept to production with precision, reliability, and speed whether that’s your first 1,000 units or your first 100,000.

Emergent Robotics: AI at the Edge of Hardware Innovation
4:15 PM - 5:00 PM
Room 254 A

Even the most advanced robotics teams hit a wall—not because of design, but because the development system around it is fragmented. Disconnected workflows between industrial design, product development engineering, sourcing, prototyping to scale manufacturing lead to late-stage performance, cost overruns, DFM issues, and supply chain delays, forcing teams to miss goals in time to market, product cost instead of strategic, proactive planning.

This session explores a new model: full-lifecycle integration for robotics development that gives teams support across ideation, industrial design, mechanical engineering, systems integration and supply chain development,   Development of the entire ecosystem —incorporating DFM and cost considerations from day one to ensure decisions are grounded in production reality.

Attendees will leave with a blueprint for closing the gap between design and deployment, learning how AI and integrated workflows transform robotics development from reactive into a seamless, predictive engine for innovation.
