Nextech3D.ai (CSE:NTAR, OTCQX:NEXCF) announced a Tier 1 enterprise starter agreement with a multinational universal bank to pilot three in-person Krafty Lab events across three countries, expanding its experiential tech offerings.

1. AI-Driven Event Technology Strategy Unveiled on CEO.CA
On February 4, 2026, Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg appeared on CEO.CA’s “Inside the Boardroom” to detail the company’s mission to centralize and modernize global enterprise event management. Gappelberg highlighted the integration of semantic AI and intelligent data platforms across the firm’s core modules—Eventdex for registration, MapD for interactive floor plans and spatial intelligence, and Krafty Labs for experiential engagement. He emphasized that this unified AI-powered operating system will enable clients to consolidate operations across multiple regions, harness real-time analytics to optimize exhibitor performance and attendee engagement, and reduce complexity by replacing fragmented tools with a single source of truth.
2. Launch of Advanced Flight Simulations via Krafty Labs
Nextech3D.ai announced a strategic partnership with The Squadron to integrate high-fidelity aviation simulations into its Krafty Labs platform. The collaboration introduces F-35 fighter jet simulations into leadership development and team-building programs, targeting corporate clients seeking immersive, premium experiences. The new offering will be available to global enterprises starting in Q2 2026, with initial deployments scheduled at three multinational corporate retreats. Gappelberg noted that the flight simulations have undergone six months of joint development and were stress-tested by 150 pilot participants to ensure operational reliability and realistic cockpit immersion.
3. Tier 1 Enterprise Agreement Fuels International Expansion
Nextech3D.ai has secured a Tier 1 starter agreement with a leading multinational universal bank and financial services firm to deploy its Krafty Labs platform across international in-person events. The pilot program covers three events in Canada, Germany and Singapore between April and June 2026, focusing on executive offsites and client advisory sessions. If successful, the bank plans a broader global rollout in Q3 2026 encompassing up to 12 events. This contract represents Nextech3D.ai’s first major enterprise deal outside North America and is expected to contribute to a 25% uplift in recurring SaaS revenue over the next 12 months.
