Hotel delivery robots bring winning edge to Chinese startup

In China, where labor shortages and soaring labor costs are increasingly serious problems, robots are replacing redundant, low value-added and sometimes dangerous human work. Hotels are no exception to this trend. As robot technology continues to improve, the service robots in hotels are attracting attention from venture capitalists and entrepreneurs. Established in 2019, Shanghai Jingwu Intelligent Technology makes robots, primarily for hotels. The startup's management and research and development team was once engaged in the robotics business of a listed company and has 17 years of experience in the field.
