MIAMI and KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AIBotics, Inc. (OTC: AIBT) (“AIBotics” or the “Company”), a global operator deploying AI-enabled robotics and intelligent automation solutions through strategic partnerships across international markets, today provided an update on its planned acquisition of NovaCore Labs, a Jamaica-based Google Partner, highlighting active robotics deployments and accelerating commercial traction ahead of an anticipated closing in the second quarter.
The transaction, previously announced under a Letter of Intent, is progressing as planned and is expected to establish AIBotics with an operational platform in the Caribbean, anchored by NovaCore’s existing enterprise relationships, digital infrastructure capabilities and now active robotics deployments in real-world commercial environments.
NovaCore has moved decisively from concept to real-world deployment, distinguishing itself from many early-stage robotics initiatives. Its systems are already operating in live environments across Jamaica, with a pilot program underway at one of the country’s largest supermarket operators and autonomous cleaning robots being tested across two major hotel chains. These deployments mark a critical transition beyond simple demonstrations, validating robotics solutions in high-traffic, revenue-generating settings within the retail and hospitality sectors. For AIBotics, this progress transforms the opportunity from future potential into active, present-day execution.
NovaCore Labs represents a strategically important platform for AIBotics, combining Google Cloud and geospatial expertise with immersive technology capabilities and established relationships across enterprise and government sectors. The company has played a leading role in Jamaica’s digital transformation, notably through launching the country’s Google Street View mapping initiative, which significantly enhanced digital visibility for businesses and tourism infrastructure.
NovaCore maintains strong partnerships with leading academic institutions, including the University of Technology and the University of the West Indies, supporting workforce development, applied AI research and digital infrastructure expansion, key pillars of AIBotics’ long-term platform strategy.
The planned acquisition of NovaCore is a key pillar of AIBotics’ “build, deploy, scale” strategy, aimed at establishing international operating footholds in high-growth markets while accelerating the real-world deployment of AI and robotics technologies. From this foundation, the company intends to scale its solutions across multiple sectors, including hospitality, retail, healthcare and public infrastructure. Jamaica and the broader CARICOM region provide a compelling entry point, driven by strong tourism-based demand, active government-led digital transformation initiatives and a growing openness to automation and smart infrastructure.
AIBotics expects to complete the acquisition in the second quarter, subject to customary closing conditions.
Upon closing, the Company intends to:
- Expand existing robotics deployments
- Introduce additional AI-enabled service platforms
- Leverage NovaCore’s infrastructure to scale across the Caribbean
“This is an execution story,” said Ben Kaplan, Chief Executive Officer of AIBotics. “NovaCore is already deploying robotics in real-world environments from supermarkets to major hotel operators. This deployment strategy demonstrates demand, validates use cases and provides a foundation we can build on immediately following closing.”
Mr. Kaplan continued, “Our focus is to take what is already working, expand it and scale it across the region. We believe this acquisition positions AIBotics to participate directly in the global shift toward automation and intelligent infrastructure.”
The global adoption of robotics and AI-driven automation is accelerating, particularly in sectors challenged by labor shortages, rising operating costs and increasing demands for efficiency and enhanced customer experience. By integrating NovaCore’s local infrastructure and market presence with AIBotics’ robotics and AI capabilities, the Company is strategically positioning itself as an early mover in deploying applied automation solutions across emerging international markets.
