Major surge in share price at leading Digital Twin company Cityzenith after huge revenue increase
CHICAGO, April 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Forecasts that the Digital Twin market will grow 58% a year to $48.2bn by 2026 (MarketsandMarkets) have helped Cityzenith stock rocket from $0.575 to $1.50 per share in just five months.
Cityzenith was also named as a sector leader, alongside Siemens, Philips and Microsoft in various market reports over the past year, further driving the $2.5m investment surge in the Chicago and London-based company since late 2020, after launching a $15m Regulation A+ crowdfunding investment platform on its own website.
Now past the 5,000-investor milestone, Cityzenith has raised over $9m since inception, funding that supports further growth and a $9m revenue pipeline of international Digital Twin projects for 2021.
These include a huge ground-breaking de-carbonisation energy scheme in the US, prestigious $1m Middle East contract, US government agency project, and a strategic partnership to help commercial building owners achieve carbon neutrality in 23 major US cities.
It all adds to a buzz around Digital Twins highlighted by 56 investment deals totalling $284m in the sector since early 2020 (source: Pitchbook) and Cityzenith founder and CEO Michael Jansen commented:
"Digital Twins - 3D virtual replicas of buildings and infrastructure optimising design, construction, and operational management - are really taking off and I believe we are well positioned to help enable President's Biden's post-COVID 'Race to Zero' and 'Build Back Better' plans to cut carbon emissions and face up to Climate Change.
"Our user-friendly SmartWorldOS™ platform has a unique flexibility to work with almost any existing technology and data on projects of any size - building, campus, district, city, county, state, country - while other companies still try to repurpose old software or sell managed services originally designed for modelling buildings, not whole cities or mega-projects.
"We were ahead of competitors by investing in R&D before launch, building our platform alongside major partners such as Cushman & Wakefield, Foster + Partners, CBRE, and Atkins Group.
"We aim to announce more contract wins shortly to drive our revenues for the next 5-10 years, and we continue to win international awards for our work in Digital Twins and smart city infrastructure.
"70% of global carbon emissions (source: UN) come from urban areas and that's why Cityzenith's 'Clean Cities – Clean Future' Digital Twin mission pledged to donate SmartWorldOS™ to key cities around the world, one at a time, to help the most polluted become carbon neutral – the first of these will be announced soon.
"But Digital Twins have other opportunities: Cityzenith was the only Digital Twin company chosen alongside nine other US innovators to join a recent NASA 'Ignite the Night: Aeronautics' event. NASA engineers were keen to learn how SmartWorldOS™ might enable safe, less congested and carbon-free transport above our cities, using electric-powered drones and air taxis."
