ZenaTech Snags 28th DaaS Deal With Canadian Engineering Firm
ZENA closes on Cogswell Engineering, expanding its drone-as-a-service footprint across five Canadian provinces.
ZenaTech (Nasdaq: ZENA) just stamped deal number 28 on its Drones as a Service acquisition streak. The Vancouver-based AI drone and SaaS company has closed on Cogswell Engineering, Ltd., a full-service Canadian engineering outfit headquartered in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, near Halifax. That's three Canadian acquisitions total for ZENA — and its second bite at the Halifax market specifically.
Cogswell isn't a niche shop. It runs the full engineering stack — civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical — serving builders, construction firms, public works authorities, and multi-jurisdiction organizations spread across five Canadian provinces. That's a ready-made client base that ZenaTech can layer drone inspection and AI-powered monitoring services on top of immediately.
