Seattle-based maker of public safety drones for first responders, Brinc Drones, is moving its headquarters and factory space to a massive development in West Canal Yards, a former fish cannery along the Lake Washington Ship Canal in Queen Anne. The company plans to grow to 50,000 square feet in one building and potentially expand this to more space down the line. Founder and CEO Blake Resnick, who moved the company from Las Vegas in 2021, chose Seattle for its aerospace, consumer electronics and software talent over Los Angeles, San Diego, Austin, San Francisco, and Boston. Brinc now employs 160 people and is expected to exceed 250 by the end of the year. The new facility will allow the company to scale output dramatically while maintaining tight integration between engineering and production.
