Vancouver, British Columbia, June 2nd, 2026, FinanceWire
Company also advances towards its stated goal of acquiring 25 companies by mid-2026
ZenaTech, Inc. (Nasdaq:ZENA) (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology solution provider specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS, and Quantum Computing solutions, today announces it has closed its 23rd acquisition and second land survey engineering firm in Colorado with the acquisition of High Prairie Survey Company. The acquired company has a longstanding track record serving real estate clients, residential developers, construction companies, and infrastructure clients across the southeastern Denver metropolitan area and growth corridor. As ZenaTech’s 23rd acquisition, this transaction further expands the Company’s DaaS and AI-autonomy platform across the U.S. and globally, while closing in on its stated goal of acquiring 25 companies by mid-2026.
“This acquisition strengthens our presence in Colorado and expands our access to a growing base of recurring land surveying and development-related customers,” said Shaun Passley, Ph.D., ZenaTech CEO. “High Prairie brings decades of trusted client relationships, a strong regional reputation, and deep expertise in surveying services. By integrating these operations into our Drone as a Service, or DaaS, platform, we can enhance operational efficiency, accelerate project timelines, and deliver greater value to developers, builders, and infrastructure customers. This acquisition, also our second in Colorado, supports our strategy of transforming traditional surveying through drone-powered data collection, aerial intelligence, and AI-driven analytics while expanding our recurring revenue opportunities.”
High Prairie Survey Company, based in Kiowa, Colorado, approximately 40 miles southeast of Denver, is a 40-year-established land surveying firm serving the rapidly growing communities of Castle Rock, Parker, Elizabeth, and surrounding areas across Douglas and Elbert counties. The company provides a broad range of surveying and land development services, including boundary and ALTA/NSPS land title surveys, construction staking, subdivision mapping, engineering support, and infrastructure-related surveying.
The acquisition strengthens ZenaTech’s presence in one of Colorado’s fastest-growing development corridors and expands the reach of its Drone as a Service (DaaS) platform as the second location in Colorado along with Rampart Surveys of Woodland Park. By integrating drone-powered surveying, aerial intelligence, and data analytics into High Prairie’s established operations, ZenaTech expects to enhance service capabilities for developers, builders, utility operator inspections, and agricultural and ranching customers while increasing operational scale and recurring revenue opportunities across the region.
ZenaTech’s Drone as a Service platform provides business and government clients with subscription-based access to faster and superior drone-based services for a host of surveying, inspection, maintenance, power washing, inventory management, and precision agriculture services, without the capital costs or operational burdens of ownership. By acquiring established, profitable service companies currently using low-tech and under digitized processes and ripe for drone innovation, ZenaTech is building a global, multi-service DaaS network of locations in communities anchored by existing customers and revenue, for next-generation drone integration designed for speed, precision and safety benefits.
