Serve Robotics Buys Hospital Robot Maker Diligent for $29M
Serve Robotics is acquiring Diligent Robotics, a hospital automation company, for $29 million, signaling its expansion beyond food delivery into the healthcare sector. This move allows Serve to leverage its expertise in last-mile delivery and human-robot interaction, potentially impacting the market for service robots in healthcare, after Diligent raised $75 million in venture capital since 2017. The acquisition follows Serve's public listing in April 2024 and reflects its strategic shift towards broader applications for its robotic technology.
