February 13, 2023 by David Edwards Leave a Comment

Berkshire Grey, a provider of AI-enabled robotic solutions that automate supply chain processes, has confirmed that it has received a non-binding indication of interest from SoftBank Group to acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of the company for $1.30 per share in cash.
