The move came after the company shared an update on its quantum computing work.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"191\" data-end=\"381\">ZenaTech said it has made progress on its own quantum hardware platform. The company has identified the main technology needs. It has also selected vendors and started buying key components.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"383\" data-end=\"563\">The company plans to build its first quantum computer prototype by late 2026. The initial system will have five qubits. This will mark ZenaTech\u2019s first fully working quantum model.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"565\" data-end=\"765\">The quantum platform is being designed to work with ZenaTech\u2019s drone systems. These drones collect very large amounts of data. The quantum computer will help process this data faster and in real time.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"767\" data-end=\"1014\">The company said this is especially important for military and government use. Faster data analysis can improve decision making in difficult and high risk environments. It can also support autonomous drone missions where speed and accuracy matter.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1016\" data-end=\"1256\">CEO Shaun Passley said building its own quantum prototype is a major step for the company. He said it helps create a fully integrated system. This system is meant to handle massive data loads and support critical defense intelligence needs.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1258\" data-end=\"1430\">ZenaTech said the platform will also support other AI driven projects. These include defense monitoring, weather forecasting, wildfire tracking, and air traffic management.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1432\" data-end=\"1620\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">The company added that quantum computing could improve how drone swarms work together. Better processing can help detect threats faster and support smarter decisions in defense operations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ZenaTech Inc shares rose 4.5% in early Thursday trading.
