Duke Robotics Evaluating Drone Operators in Preparation for Commencement of Activities in Greece

/EIN News/ -- FT. LAUDERDALE, FL, April 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Duke Robotics Corp. (OTCQB) ("Duke Robotics" or the "Company"), a leader in advanced robotics technology and autonomous drone solutions, today announced significant progress in its efforts to identify and select certified drone operators in Greece. This initiative represents a key advancement in the Company's European expansion strategy, following the recent establishment of Duke Robotics Hellas I.K.E ("Duke Robotics Greece") and the appointment of Alexandra Papaconstantinou as Managing Director of Duke Robotics Greece.

Yossef Balucka, Chief Executive Officer of Duke Robotics, has been conducting extensive visits throughout Greece alongside Mrs. Papaconstantinou to personally evaluate several potential drone operators. The Company is in advanced discussions with qualified candidates and expects to finalize the selection process in the very near future.

"Identifying the right drone operators is an important milestone in our Greek market entry strategy," said Yossef Balucka, Chief Executive Officer of Duke Robotics. "It is central to our operational methodology, enabling us to ensure highly professional operations. Our evaluation process has been thorough, and we're encouraged by the caliber of potential drone operators we've identified in Greece."

Duke Robotics’ evaluation process is based on the drone operators’ technical capabilities, safety record, regulatory compliance and capacity to support the Company's growth objectives in Greece.

Greece has allocated over $32 billion in European Union funding to support energy-related projects¹ and aims to generate 82% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030², which we believe creates substantial potential opportunities for innovative utility maintenance solutions such as those being developed by Duke Robotics.
