Nextech3D.ai, an AI-powered event management company listed on the CSE, OTCQB, and FSE, has moved up the launch of its ticketing software solutions from the fourth quarter to the third quarter of 2025. The firm also confirmed plans to introduce blockchain-enabled ticketing in the final quarter of the year. The decision reflects the growing need for secure digital ticketing solutions amid increasing risks of fraud, counterfeiting, and scalping. Technologies such as blockchain, identity verification, and secure tokenization are expected to play an important role in addressing these challenges.
The company highlighted that its new platform introduces a transaction-based revenue model that scales with event demand. According to market research firm Mordor Intelligence, the global ticketing industry is projected to reach $85 billion in 2025 and grow further to $103 billion by 2030, underscoring the opportunity for growth in the sector.
Revenue Model Aligned with Event Growth
Unlike traditional flat-fee models, Nextech3D.ai’s platform will generate $0.99 per ticket sold in addition to a 3% share of the ticket price. This structure directly ties the company’s earnings to ticket sales volume and pricing, creating recurring, high-margin revenue streams. The firm noted that this approach not only aligns its financial performance with the success of its clients’ events but also opens up significant opportunities for scalable growth.
With the blockchain ticketing upgrade scheduled for Q4, Nextech3D.ai aims to tap both the primary ticket sales market and the lucrative secondary resale market, which has long been dominated by established players. The company believes its technology can provide a secure and next-generation alternative, reducing fraud while enabling broader participation in ticket transactions.
CEO Outlines Growth Potential
Chief Executive Officer Evan Gappelberg explained that by accelerating the platform’s launch, the company is unlocking a new revenue driver that ties financial outcomes directly to event performance. He added that the blockchain-enabled ticketing component will allow Nextech3D.ai to engage in secondary market transactions, which he viewed as a significant step in aligning the firm with the evolving dynamics of the ticketing industry. Gappelberg indicated that these initiatives are expected to create strong momentum, positioning 2026 as a year of profitability and positive cash flow for the company.
Established Client Base and Expansion Opportunities
Nextech3D.ai pointed to its Map D platform, which already supports over 500 events each year, about a quarter of which involve ticket sales. The company also has more than 125 existing clients that it expects will adopt the new ticketing solution, offering an established pipeline for rapid revenue generation. Management emphasized that this creates a low-friction path to adoption and faster monetization from the outset.
In addition to the ticketing platform launch, the company has issued one million three-year stock options priced at $0.15 under its employee stock option plan. This step reflects its broader strategy to incentivize and retain talent as it pursues growth in the expanding global ticketing market.
Positioning for a Competitive Future
By combining artificial intelligence, blockchain technology, and a scalable revenue model, Nextech3D.ai aims to position itself as a strong competitor in the digital ticketing space. Its strategy underscores how emerging technology can transform event management and reshape traditional ticketing economics. With a growing client base, early adoption pipeline, and a direct link between ticket sales and revenues, the company is seeking to establish a long-term foundation for expansion in both primary and secondary markets.
