DUOS TECHNOLOGIES GROUP, INC.

Our Corporate History

Information Systems Associates, Inc. (“ISA”) was incorporated in Florida on May 31, 1994. Our original business operations consisted of consulting services for asset management of large corporate data centers and the development and licensing of information technology (“IT”) asset management software. In late 2014, ISA entered negotiations with Duos Technologies, Inc. (“duostech™”) for the purposes of executing a merger between the two organizations (also known as a “reverse triangular merger”). Incorporated under the laws of Florida on November 30, 1990, duostech™ operated in various industry segments, specializing in the design, development and deployment of proprietary technology applications and turn-key engineered systems. This transaction was completed on April 1, 2015, whereby duostech™ became a wholly owned subsidiary of ISA. After the merger was completed, ISA changed its corporate name to Duos Technologies Group, Inc. (“Duos” or “the Company”). During 2024, the Company began a major expansion into new markets, leveraging the developments previously undertaken and the experience of its management team. Still headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, Duos now manages three, wholly owned subsidiaries, duostech®, Duos Edge AI Inc., (“Duos Edge”) and Duos Energy Corporation (“Duos Energy”). In its current operations it now employs approximately 84 people in management, operations, engineering, software development, customer support and project implementation and management across three major market segments including rail technology deployment, Data Center co-location facilities and behind the meter electrical power provision. Duos also continues to operate as a technology company which designs, develops, deploys and operates intelligent technology solutions with a focus on software applications and artificial intelligence (“AI”) in addition to large project, consulting, implementation and asset management.
