Tech entrepreneur Adam Robinson dies in Florida private plane crash
A social media post by Robinson has resurfaced following the fatal accident that killed him, his wife, and two children.
Tech entrepreneur Adam Robinson, along with his wife, two children, and five others, died when a private plane crashed in Palm Beach County, Florida, on Sunday, November 1, 2026, according to the Times of India.
The Learjet 60 was travelling to North Eleuthera in the Bahamas when the accident occurred, which resulted in the deaths of everyone on board, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The passengers killed were Robinson, Helen Sharp, their children Emma and Charlie, nanny Anita Maria Cetina, and friends Rachael Reed and Charmi Fehr. Two crew members also died in the crash.
A post made by Robinson on X on July 19, 2023, has resurfaced online. In the post, which was a sarcastic remark during a discussion about software-as-a-service companies, he wrote, “I guess I'm dead.”
Robinson was the founder and CEO of Retention.com, RB2B, and Moltsets. He had previously shared on LinkedIn that Retention.com reached $20 million in annual recurring revenue within 44 months.
Reuters reported that cockpit communications showed the crew encountered light clear icing and moderate turbulence before declaring an emergency. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has launched an investigation into the crash.
