Emilio Butragueño reflected on the collaborative spirit, saying, "Partnering with leading companies such as Roborock propels us forward. Their ambitions parallel ours in seeking constant improvement and excellence. We believe this partnership will yield long-term benefits for both organizations."
The partnership will also see Roborock’s branding prominently displayed during Real Madrid's home matches at the iconic Santiago Bernabéu Stadium. This exposure will allow Roborock to reach hundreds of millions of football fans worldwide, blending sports affinity with cutting-edge cleaning solutions. Additionally, the two organizations plan to engage fans through immersive experiences and innovative campaigns, aiming to bring the concept of "Real Smart Cleaning" into consumers' homes.
As artificial intelligence continues to reshape everyday life, Roborock is dedicated to advancing home automation solutions that simplify tasks for users. The company aims to empower consumers, allowing them to embrace a more effortless lifestyle, where cleaning becomes a worry of the past.
