Industrial drone startup company Exyn Technologies has opened its first international office in Sudbury, Canada.
The Philadelphia-based company develops autonomous aerial robot systems that are most commonly used for industrial applications such as mining, construction, infrastructure inspection, and military surveillance/reconnaissance.
Exyn’s CEO Nader Elm said the Canadian expansion includes plans for more real mine environment testing and enhanced customer support for clients in the Sudbury and Northern Ontario mining region.
“We are very optimistic about this expansion and the opportunities to both support our Canadian customers as well as further product development,” Mr Elm said.
“The Sudbury office will be strategically important to supporting our innovation plans and ensuring we stay on the cutting edge of mining automation.”
The new office is housed at the NORCAT building, a not for profit technology and innovation centre that provides health and safety training for the mining industry, occupational health and safety services,and product development assistance to small, medium and large industrial enterprises.
“Being a part of the community in Sudbury, specifically being established in the NORCAT building is an honour as we are surrounded by other companies changing the future of mining,” said Raffi Jabrayan, Director, Markets and Industries Exyn Technologies.
“We are incredibly excited for this permanent office in Canada and look forward to being a part of the community here.”
