Summary List PlacementAmerican college students could have their takeout delivered by robots later this year. Online delivery company Grubhub on Tuesday announced it was teaming up with the Russian-Dutch tech company Yandex to roll out food-delivery robots across 250 US college campuses in the fall. The six-wheeled robots, about the size of a suitcase, are autonomous and can navigate pavements, pedestrian areas, and places inaccessible to cars, according to a statement by Grubhub, which has 33 million active users. The robots can operate in the dark, and moderate snow and rain, the statement said. Yandex said it had been testing out the robots commercially in Russia since 2020. The robots were also trialing food deliveries around Ann Arbor, Michigan, in April 2021, the company added. When the delivery robot is near its destination, the customer receives a Grubhub app notification with the robot's location, Grubhub said in the statement. Once the robot arrives, the customer uses the app to open a hatch and collect the food, the company added. The robot then moves on to its next delivery, Grubhub said. Grubhub didn't disclose financial terms of the partnership, or say which colleges would get the robots first. Gruhub told the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday that the campuses it would supply are big, with as many as 60,000 students. Insider has reached out to Grubhub for comment. Join the conversation about this story » NOW WATCH: How racism contributed to marijuana prohibition in the US

Summary List PlacementGrubhub disclosed in a regulatory filing Thursday that it's facing 14 lawsuits from investors who say the company misled them about its plans to be acquired by Dutch food delivery giant Just Eat Takeaway. The investors alleged that Grubhub executives and board members failed to disclose key financial details and massive payouts that they stood to receive as part of the merger, and that they failed to secure the highest possible price for Grubhub's public shareholders, harming them financially as a result. Frank Ferreiro, the lead plaintiff in the case, said in a lawsuit filed in New York last month that when Grubhub publicly announced the proposed merger, it withheld underlying financial data it had used to make assumptions about the companies' future performance, as well as well as "golden parachutes," job offers, and other lucrative perks guaranteed to Grubhub executives and directors. Ferreiro's lawsuit alleged that investors like himself — who would get roughly 0.67 share of Just Eat stock for each of their Grubhub shares regardless of either company's stock price when the merger closes — lack the information to determine whether they're getting a raw deal. "Grubhub insiders are the primary beneficiaries of the Proposed Transaction, not the Company's public stockholders," the lawsuit stated. Ferrerio also said that GrubHub didn't try hard enough to get the best deal for public investors. His lawsuit asks the court to invalidate the proposed merger agreement and force Grubhub to seek the "highest possible price" for any sale.Join the conversation about this story » NOW WATCH: Inside a $3 million doomsday condo that can sustain 75 people for 5 years
