"Having our securities listed on the Nasdaq is a crucial step for Sarcos," said Ben Wolff, chairman and CEO, Sarcos. "As a public company, we now have the resources we need to bring our award-winning Guardian® XO® industrial exoskeleton and Guardian® XT™ industrial robotic avatar system to market, giving companies in the U.S. and abroad a unique solution to the critical shortage of workers who are able to conduct physically demanding tasks. We are very excited to continue working towards the development of our first commercial units, which we expect will be ready for release at the end of 2022."
