About Spencer Krause

Say “robotics” and the mind blurs with the possibilities, the options, and the scope of opportunities. My career has revolved around helping organizations – from startups to fortune 10 companies – understand, evaluate, and develop advanced robotics technology. Leading SKA Robotics as President and CEO, with the support of a world-class team, I have designed, created, and successfully deployed advanced field robotics systems that generate meaningful results safely, innovatively, and profitably for our customers. My latest company, Tension Dynamics, is revolutionizing the way linear actuators work with a radical new design that is lighter and more cost effective than anything on the market. My podcast, “Collaborative With Spencer Krause,” is quickly gaining industry-wide recognition as a no-nonsense look inside the minds of people pushing the limits of technology, research, and entrepreneurship. These endeavors continue to fire my desire to always find fresh outlets of expression and achievement to advance the human experience. From vision to fruition, I believe that my clients, partners, and coworkers have benefited from my quarter-century of deep-dive technical expertise and business acumen – a potent blend of passion and precision that I am honored to put to work in every task that I pursue.
