ZenaTech (Nasdaq: ZENA) is making significant strides in the rapidly evolving drone technology and quantum computing markets, targeting both defense and commercial sectors with strategic innovations. The company's multifaceted approach includes pursuing critical military certifications, developing advanced drone technologies, and expanding its drone-as-a-service (DaaS) business model.
The company is actively pursuing Blue UAS certification for its IQ Nano drone sensor, which would enable direct sales to U.S. military and federal agencies. This certification is crucial, given the global military drone market is projected to grow from $14 billion in 2023 to $47 billion by 2032. ZenaTech is also developing DroneNet, a proprietary communications management system designed for secure, uninterrupted communications in challenging environments.
In the commercial sector, ZenaTech is expanding its DaaS model through strategic acquisitions of land survey engineering companies. The company's IQ Square drone, designed for building inspections and cleaning services, represents a significant opportunity in a market projected to reach $53.89 billion by 2030. By providing drone solutions on a pay-as-you-go basis, ZenaTech is helping businesses access advanced technologies without substantial upfront investments.
The company's quantum computing initiatives are equally promising, with the Sky Traffic project demonstrating early success in improving weather forecasting accuracy for aerial operations. ZenaTech is expanding its engineering team to accelerate development in areas like traffic management, wildfire prevention, and defense operations.
With plans to manufacture at least ten ZenaDrone 1000 units monthly starting in 2025 and continuous technological advancements, ZenaTech is rapidly positioning itself as an emerging leader in AI-powered drone technology and quantum computing solutions for defense and commercial markets.
