Vegas Golden Knights and Richtech Robotics Partner to Help Shape the Future of Sports and Technology

LAS VEGAS, October 27, 2025 – Richtech Robotics Inc. (Nasdaq: RR) (“Richtech”), a Nevada company and a provider of AI-driven robot solutions, and the Vegas Golden Knights today announced a landmark partnership that represents a defining step forward in how sports and technology come together. This collaboration marks one of the first service robotics partnerships in the National Hockey League, signaling a new era in how automation and artificial intelligence will help shape entertainment, hospitality, and fan engagement.

Known for blazing their own trail in professional hockey, the Vegas Golden Knights are again charting new territory, this time by joining forces with a fellow Las Vegas innovator. Richtech has built a reputation for bringing collaborative robots into unexpected settings, including restaurants, hotels, and event venues worldwide. Together, the Golden Knights and Richtech will explore how robotics and AI can enhance fan experiences, streamline operations, and redefine what’s possible for the future of live sports entertainment within Las Vegas.

“When the Vegas Golden Knights took the ice, they redefined what a championship franchise could mean for this city and for the sport,” said Matt Casella, President of Richtech Robotics. “Now, together, we’re setting a new standard — this time for hospitality and fan engagement. What started as a bold idea in Las Vegas will soon become the global benchmark for how robotics and live entertainment can come together to create unforgettable experiences.”

A Strategic Collaboration Rooted in Las Vegas Innovation

Las Vegas is the global capital of entertainment and hospitality, and both organizations see robotics as a key driver of its future growth. By partnering with the Vegas Golden Knights, one of the city’s most influential brands, Richtech Robotics will deepen its ties to leading beverage, hospitality, and venue operators. The collaboration will help Richtech understand how robotics can not only delight fans but also benefit sponsors, vendors, and event staff, creating a foundation for new business and next-generation experiences.

“The Vegas Golden Knights are always striving to push the boundaries of the fan experience,” said John Penhollow, Vegas Golden Knights President of Business Operations. “Richtech Robotics shares our passion for innovation, and together we’re exploring how technology can elevate and redefine what live sports can deliver. This partnership represents an exciting glimpse into the future of fan engagement.”

ADAM: The Face of a New Fan Experience

In accordance with the corporate sponsorship agreement, ADAM will be featured throughout the 2025–2026 season in select activations and events, offering fans an up-close look at a new kind of interactive gameday experience.
