Today, Bobacino – a startup developing fully automated, small footprint boba shops – announced a new R&D partnership with Boba Guys – a San Francisco-based chain of Boba cafes offering delicious milk tea drinks and snacks – to accelerate the development of Bobacino's technology and explore future collaboration opportunities.
"Boba Guys believes that progress and innovation is often at the edges of technology, and we can think of no better partner to explore automation with than Bobacino," said Bin Chen, co-founder of Boba Guys. "The tools and technology that Bobacino provides will create something entirely new and open up markets and opportunities for the whole boba industry."

"We are extremely excited to partner with Boba Guys, a brand with a strong commitment to quality - not only in its product, but also in its service," said Darian Ahler, Chief Executive Officer of Bobacino. "As the boba market continues to quickly expand, we look forward to furthering the sector and making the boba experience even better than it is today."
