Establishing operations in Washington, D.C. strategically positions Knightscope at the epicenter of federal decision-making, enabling the company to accelerate procurement opportunities and build critical relationships with agencies across the federal government.

"Washington Office exists to help transformative companies like Knightscope navigate the complexities of the federal landscape," said Evan Burfield, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Washington Office and previous founder of 1776, a global technology incubator. "Autonomous security solutions represent the future of public safety, and we're proud to help bring this technology to the federal sector." This presence will drive growth across multiple sectors including military base security, federal facility protection, transportation security, and critical infrastructure defense.

"The convergence of robotics and national security represents a pivotal shift in how we approach public safety," said Colleen Laughlin, Partner at Washington Office and former Executive Director of the Defense Innovation Board, where she worked alongside former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and business titan Michael Bloomberg to modernize the Department of Defense's approach to technology adoption. "Knightscope's security solutions align perfectly with the federal government's need for innovative security capabilities."

Knightscope's autonomous security robots are already proven in the private sector, with successful deployments across healthcare facilities, commercial real estate and industrial applications nationwide. To showcase these capabilities to federal stakeholders, Knightscope plans to establish a technology showroom in the Washington, D.C. area. The company's expansion into Washington, D.C. will facilitate the adaptation of these field-tested technologies to meet federal security requirements while addressing the government's growing need for cost-effective, round-the-clock security solutions.

“Ready or not, the robots are coming to DC, and we encourage DOGE to evaluate the entire public safety, law enforcement, and guarding expenditures across the Government,” said Miles Taylor, former Chief of Staff, U.S. Department of Homeland Security. “Knightscope’s technology represents a significant opportunity to improve security effectiveness while reducing costs.”
