Land acknowledgement

The lands we work on.

Robson works from West Vancouver, on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh and Musqueam Nations, who have cared for these lands and waters since time immemorial.

Our founder, Martin Robson, is Cree, a member of George Gordon First Nation in Treaty 4 territory, Saskatchewan. We are grateful for both: the lands that host our work, and the community our founder comes from.

Indigenous procurement

Ownership that counts for your organization.

Robson is a certified Indigenous business for federal procurement. Contracts with Robson can help departments meet the federal target of awarding at least 5% of contract value to Indigenous businesses.

For enterprise and Crown clients with their own Indigenous procurement or reconciliation goals, the same applies: the infrastructure you already need can also advance them.

Portrait of Martin Robson, founder of Robson Inc.

Martin Robson

Founder, Robson Inc. · Cree, George Gordon First Nation

Martin founded Robson Inc. in 2001 and has spent 25 years in Canadian infrastructure. Emily began with a problem he met while running infrastructure projects: AI assistants that forgot everything between conversations.

“I needed an AI that understood context over months, not minutes. When I couldn't find it, I realized we had to build it ourselves.”
