Jay-Z Makes Major Investment in Robot-Powered Pizza Restaurant

Jay-Z Makes Major Investment in Robot-Powered Pizza Restaurant

Published Tue, October 4, 2022 at 9:50 AM EDT

Jay-Z continues to expand his business ventures. Now, the rapper/mogul has invested $16.5 million into a soon-to-launch mobile robot-powered pizza restaurant, Stellar Pizza.

Per Hypebeast, the founding members include three former SpaceX engineers, Benson Tsai, Brian Langone, and James Wahawisan, who have developed the automated truck service. The truck's specialty is the ability to deliver gourmet pies right to your doorstep. The truck currently has a capacity of making 420 pizzas, with a single pizza taking less than five minutes to prepare.

Jay has entered the Series A financing round with his venture capital firm Marcy Venture Partners, who have also invested in Therabody and Savage x Fenty. Stellar Pizza is looking to become the future of pizza delivery with its automated, robotic pizza truck that will reduce the cost of labor and expensive real estate.

Stellar Pizza is set to launch this fall at the University of California.
