Who we are

Redwood Infrastructure stands at the forefront of telecommunications infrastructure, empowering the industry's rapid expansion and evolution from coast to coast. We build and lease telecom infrastructure to support network growth, providing co-location access and bringing connectivity to the dark zones. We are the bridge between major telecom companies and the towers we each depend on for clear signals whenever and wherever we need them.

Driven by our core principles of innovation, evolution, scalability, and sustainability, we constantly seek new ways to excel in the industry. Our nationwide network of owned towers provides strategic hosting of critical equipment, enabling our clients to refocus their investments on core technology innovation and service expansion, propelling their success and growth.

With industry experts as our leaders and the confidence and financial backing of a large Canadian private equity firm renowned for investing in businesses, we are set up for significant growth and success. We are on target to be the largest TowerCo in Canada by the Fall of 2024.

Joining us now is a chance to be part of a rapidly scaling company driven by a mission to ensure everyone can reliably connect with emergency services, family, work, and everything in between, no matter where they are in Canada. This isn't just lifestyle improvement; it is life-changing and life-saving infrastructure. It's an opportunity to contribute to the future and make history with infrastructure that will stand the test of time.
