AI summary

What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

ZenaTech completed the Velocity Geomatics acquisition in July 2026, expanding its Drone-as-a-Service capabilities in Western Canada. Fueled by oil prices up ~45% YoY in Q2 2026 and an expected >$500 billion Canadian energy investment over the next decade, demand for drone-based surveying and environmental services should accelerate. This combination could drive sustained revenue growth for ZENA as drone adoption becomes standard in energy operations.
