Guardforce AI is opening new offices in Tokyo and San Francisco as it moves to boost its presence in those markets.
The robotics-as-a-service (RaaS) company will bring its product range of food delivery robots, as well as disinfection and reception service bots to these areas for hospitality use in restaurants, shopping centers and hotels.
Guardforce AI chairman, Terence Yap, said these markets hold significant opportunities for the group’s pipeline of robotics.
“With increasing labor costs and the aging population, in Japan alone automated robotic services are expected to double from 2020 to 2026,” said Yap. “In addition, San Francisco is a well-known tech hub with high-quality technology engineers and renowned technology research centers, making it the perfect location to set up our RaaS operations to attract talent and build a comprehensive technology ecosystem surrounding our RaaS solutions.”
