Wonder Lays off 7% of Workers: Marc Lore's food delivery unicorn has its first layoff as growth goes slower than expected. Colleges are embracing delivery robots. Grubhub announced a partnership with Kiwi, adding to their partnerships with Starship and Cartken. Is there something about college campuses that make them a logical testing ground for food robotics? And we put Clayton on the food robot hot seat, asking him: How would you assess the food robot marketplace in 2022? Will we see some consolidation in certain areas of food robotics in 2023? Predictions for the 2023 food robot market. Enjoy!
