TechForce Robotics (NGTF) Secures Full Ownership of BIM-E IP, Bolstering Robotics Ecosystem Amidst an Industry Transition

  • TechForce Robotics announced that the company has secured full ownership of the Intellectual Property for BIM-E, an autonomous beverage robotics platform
  • This announcement follows the successful debut of the platform at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, where the company reported strong industry engagement, reinforcing confidence in the commercial viability of the platform
  • Following CES, NGTF has initiated steps to ramp up manufacturing readiness, expand development teams, and more

Nightfood Holdings Inc. (d.b.a. TechForce Robotics) (OTCQB: NGTF), an emerging robotics company focused on deploying AI-Enhanced automation across multiple industries, recently announced that it has completed a comprehensive intellectual property acquisition of the BIM-E Autonomous Beverage Robotics Platform (ibn.fm/uesFt).

The transaction comes at a time when the broader AI-driven service robotics market is accelerating from prototype development, toward real-world, revenue generating deployment, particularly across the high-traffic public venues. This platform automates beverage dispensing in an efficient and reliable manner and is designed to reduce wait times and ease labor constraints in environments such as hotels, conventions and sports arenas. 

The company is securing full ownership of all pre-existing intellectual property related to Beer Bot and the evolved BIM-E systems. The transaction includes patents, source code, firmware, AI models and more – a move that strengthens TechForce’s control to scale. 

Along with the acquisition, the inventor of the platform, Christopher Erpelding, also joined NGTF as Chief Mechatronics Architect, and his compensation structure is directly tied to the commercial performance from the platform.

This announcement and acquisition follow the successful debut of the BIM-E platform at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, which is one of the largest technology trade shows. The company received strong industry engagement during the show, which reinforced the commercial viability of the platform.

As a result, NGTF has initiated the steps to ramp up manufacturing readiness, expand its engineering and robotics development teams, recruit specialized automation and AI talent, and evaluate strategic tech acquisitions and merger opportunities. Management has indicated that the operational teams are working to position the company for sustained growth and responsible scaling within a market that can benefit.

Speaking about the acquisition, Ried Floco, President of NGTF, said, “With full intellectual property ownership secured and a performance-based incentive structure in place, we believe we are well-positioned to execute on production expansion and long-term value creation.”

In the context of a service robotics market that is rapidly evolving from experimental prototypes toward real-world commercial deployment, driven by constraints, NGTF’s strategic actions reflect this broader transition. Industry forecasts project the global service robotics sector to expand to more than $107 billion by 2030, with companies focused on enabling intelligent machines and systems that can operate alongside humans. By securing full intellectual property ownership of the BIM-E platform, aligning leadership incentives with execution and positioning for manufacturing readiness, NGTF positions itself with this commercialization wave, committing to deliver automation solutions that meet market demand and long-term growth opportunities.
