ZenaTech Sets Up Global Drone-as-a-Service Hub in Orlando Amid 36% Industry Growth—Here’s Why It Matters

Orlando Headquarters Anchors ZenaTech’s Nationwide Expansion Plans

ZenaTech, a technology solutions company known for its AI drone and enterprise SaaS offerings, has selected Orlando, Florida as the global headquarters for its Drone as a Service (DaaS) operations. With the drone services market expanding at an eye-catching compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 36%, this strategic move places ZenaTech at the heart of a rapidly evolving sector.

The new 20,000 square-foot headquarters will act as a central hub for national and international drone activities. Orlando's robust aerospace talent, government partnerships, year-round favorable conditions, and supportive business environment were decisive factors in this selection, according to CEO Shaun Passley. This location will facilitate ZenaTech’s integration of its growing U.S. acquisitions, rollout of innovative drone services, and scaling of its DaaS model across business and government sectors.

Flexible DaaS Model Meets Growing Demand Across Industries

ZenaTech’s DaaS offering delivers flexible, on-demand, or subscription-based access to a range of drone services—including surveying, inspection, power washing, and inventory management. By allowing customers to avoid the capital costs and operational headaches of owning and maintaining their own drone fleets, ZenaTech aims to help clients boost efficiency, precision, and safety. The business strategy centers on acquiring established service providers ready for drone innovation, converting existing customer relationships into recurring revenue and positioning ZenaTech as a leader in tech-enabled field services.

Job Creation and Talent Investment Accelerate U.S. Growth

While ZenaTech currently employs three DaaS staff members locally, the Orlando operation is expected to scale up quickly. By the end of 2025, the company aims to grow to 10 local DaaS employees, with an ambitious plan to reach 50 staff members by mid-2026. New hires will include business development specialists, drone pilots, survey technicians, and more, further solidifying Orlando’s reputation as a technology hub. An additional dedicated office for business and surveying will bring at least 10 more specialized professionals on board.

Acquisition Strategy Accelerates Nationwide Footprint

ZenaTech has already completed 10 U.S. acquisitions on its way to a target of 25 DaaS locations by the second quarter of 2026. This growth-through-acquisition strategy helps the company rapidly onboard existing customers and expand service offerings in multiple regions, increasing its national footprint while reducing time-to-market for its drone innovations.

Innovation in Hardware and Software Bolsters Competitive Edge

Through its subsidiary ZenaDrone, ZenaTech designs and manufactures specialized drones like the ZenaDrone 1000 for agriculture and defense, IQ Nano for warehouse inventory management, and IQ Square for land surveys. With the integration of AI, machine learning, predictive modeling, and quantum computing, these solutions serve diverse clients across commercial, government, agriculture, logistics, and defense sectors.

Takeaway: Expansion, Innovation, and Market Leadership in Focus

The establishment of ZenaTech’s DaaS headquarters in Orlando marks a significant commitment to the future of drone services. With a booming industry, robust expansion plans, and a strategy grounded in both technology and acquisition, ZenaTech is well positioned to compete for market leadership. For stakeholders and potential investors, the focus will now be on execution—especially as the company seeks to meet aggressive staffing goals and fully leverage the explosive growth forecast for the drone services market. As Orlando emerges as a national DaaS hub, all eyes will be on ZenaTech to deliver innovation, job growth, and scalable business value in a rapidly transforming sector.
