ZenaTech Expands Drone-as-a-Service (DaaS) Exterior Building Power Washing to Dubai Tapping into a Global Drone Cleaning Services Market Growing to USD 13 Billion by 2030
By GlobeNewswire Published on May 13, 2025, 17:30 IST
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) ('ZenaTech'), a technology company specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drones, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, announces it is expanding its United Arab Emirates (UAE) presence by establishing a new office to sell Drone-as-a-Service (DaaS) offerings based in Dubai. Initially this office will focus on delivering drone-powered cleaning services for building exteriors using the IQ Square drone tethered to a water pipe and electrical cord. The company is currently obtaining a permit from the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority to begin power wash testing and operations. Supporting this expansion, ZenaTech will hire two business development managers and up to four additional drone pilots, with drones supplied from its subsidiary ZenaDrone which has a manufacturing hub in nearby Sharjah.
The global drone power washing market falls under a broader drone cleaning services market category that was valued at approximately USD 4.36 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 13.2 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of almost 17% according to market analyst Valuates Reports, fueled by increasing demand for safe, efficient and cost-effective maintenance solutions.
'With rising demand for tech-enabled and efficient maintenance solutions, whether for power washing buildings, renewable energy assets, or public spaces, we believe AI-powered drones will bring new safety standards, cost-efficiency, and greater environmental sustainability to maintenance tasks. UAE's openness to innovative technology makes it an ideal launchpad for these DaaS solutions that we hope to expand to all seven emirates in addition to the US and Europe,' said CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D.
Dubai has one of the highest densities of skyscrapers in the world, with over 250 skyscrapers over 150 meters tall, and a challenging climate marked by frequent sandstorms, making it an ideal location for drone-powered cleaning services. This is further underscored by the city's regulations mandating regular window cleaning for buildings exposed to the pervasive sand and dust.
The ZenaDrone IQ Square is an advanced AI-powered autonomous drone with a footprint of 40X40 and 50X50 inches in size, in a rotary VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) design. It is designed to perform visual-line-of-sight land surveys, various types of inspections and surveillance applications, power washing applications using a tethered water and power supply, and reconnaissance missions required for defense applications. Equipped to use interchangeable state-of-the-art cameras, sensors, and attachments, the IQ Square can carry a payload of up to seven kilograms and offers a flight time of approximately 20 minutes when using its battery that can be autonomously recharged through landing on a charging pad.
ZenaTech's DaaS business incorporating the ZenaDrone 1000 and the IQ series of multifunction drones, provides a variety of cost-effective and accessible solutions through an Uber-like business model paid for on a regular subscription or pay-per-use basis. The business model offers customers such as government agencies, farmers, real estate developers, or business owners reduced upfront costs and convenience ─ there is no need to purchase drone hardware and software, find a drone pilot, manage maintenance and operation, or acquire regulatory approvals. The model also offers scalability to use more often or less often based on business needs.

Martini Market Presale Surpasses 40% of Softcap Within 24 Hours of Launch on XRP Ledger
By GlobeNewswire Published on June 21, 2025, 19:02 IST DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, June 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Martini Market , the decentralized prediction market platform being developed on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), has confirmed that its $MRT token presale has exceeded 40% of its initial softcap target within 24 hours of launch. The strong early participation reflects rising interest in emerging use cases within the expanding XRP ecosystem. The presale, which opened on June 19 at 3 PM UTC, offers 4 million $MRT tokens to the public out of a total supply of 10 million. The softcap is set at 50,000 XRP, and the hardcap is capped at 250,000 XRP. According to the project team, over 20,000 XRP has already been contributed in the first 24 hours. Martini Market positions itself as the first decentralized, on-chain prediction platform built directly on the XRP Ledger. It aims to enable users to create and participate in outcome-based markets tied to real-world events. These include sectors such as politics, sports, finance, and global affairs, resolved via oracles and on-chain automation. The $MRT token is designed as a core utility asset within the Martini Market ecosystem. According to the team, its intended functions include governance participation, staking, and market creation. Platform users holding specific quantities of $MRT will have access to additional roles and benefits once the platform is live. The project launch comes amid a period of notable development across the XRP Ledger. Ripple's recent regulatory progress in the UAE, including DFSA approval and partnerships with Zand Bank and Mamo, along with the integration of USDC and RLUSD, and the introduction of an EVM-compatible sidechain, have contributed to an environment increasingly supportive of DeFi protocols. 'The early demand for $MRT appears to reflect an appetite within the XRPL community for decentralized tools that go beyond payments,' said a Martini Market spokesperson. 'Prediction markets are widely used on other blockchains, and bringing this functionality to XRPL could open a new chapter in its utility-driven growth.' The $MRT token is currently being offered at a presale rate of 1 XRP = 16 MRT. Post-presale, the listing price has been set at 1 XRP = 11 MRT, representing a difference of approximately 30% from the presale valuation. The presale is expected to run for up to 30 days, though it may conclude earlier if the hardcap is reached. In addition to governance and market participation, $MRT will also be used to incentivize liquidity providers and potentially reward staking participants. Specific platform mechanisms will be detailed further as the protocol approaches mainnet deployment. Martini Market has not made any financial projections or investment claims regarding $MRT. The team emphasizes that participation in the presale is subject to personal discretion and recommends that users conduct independent research before contributing.
