EdgeTI Recognized in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Defense, 2025

Edge Total Intelligence Inc. (“edgeTI”, “Company”) (TSXV: CTRL) (OTCQB: UNFYF) (FSE: Q5i), a leading software provider, announces that the Company has been recognized for the second year in a row in the Gartner^® Hype Cycle™ for Defense, 2025, as a Sample Vendor in the Digital Twins category.

Gartner states, “Rapid technological breakthroughs, complex geopolitical tensions and the need for operational agility continue to shape the defense landscape. Modern defense organizations require innovative solutions that improve operational readiness and warfighting capabilities and ensure secure integration across multidomain environments. A key challenge is balancing emerging digital technologies with effective risk management.”

Gartner defines, “A digital twin is a software-based model representing the state of a thing, such as an asset, person, composite process or organization. It can embed business process logic to optimize outcomes into the software templates. Digital twin elements include models, data, one-to-one association and near-real-time monitorability. Digital twin design patterns are built into enabling software — analytics, 3D, CRM or IoT — and often incorporate real-time data from telemetry or application state changes.”

“On the heels of our announcements ImmixGroup, Sabel Systems and Austal Australia this year and successful panels at SPACE Industry & Government Summit and Expo last week, we are excited to be recognized by the world’s leading technology analyst in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Defense, 2025,” said Jim Barrett, CEO of edgeTI. “Defense organizations need extreme agility to complete missions and command at the speed of threats and our edgeCore™ Digital Twin platform and its predecessor technologies have helped the armed services achieve mission goals for more than twenty years.“

edgeTI offers free demonstrations of Defense Industry benefits and free evaluations of Digital Twins via the Company’s website to Service Providers.
