Some years are about growth; others are about direction. 2025 was both for Ocean Investments.
Across our portfolio, our companies translated strategy into strong financial performance, launched meaningful innovations, expanded their international footprint, and earned recognition from industry leaders, all while preparing for something big.
Below, we take a look at the key achievements of each Ocean Investments company during the year.

AMATAS became the first Bulgarian company to achieve four CREST accreditations, placing it among a very limited group of globally recognized cybersecurity providers.
The company also expanded its service portfolio with:
- A new essential penetration testing service designed for small enterprises with limited budgets, offering affordable, compliance-ready security.
- A continuous penetration testing service, delivered through the Plainsea platform, enabling real-time vulnerability assessment and ongoing security monitoring.
Alongside these strategic launches, AMATAS achieved and exceeded its annual financial targets, confirming strong market demand and the effectiveness of its growth strategy.
Plainsea
Plainsea attracted significant international attention at leading cybersecurity events in 2025, including Infosecurity Europe, Black Hat USA, Inter Cyber Expo, and XChange NexGen, with CEO Marko Simeonov continuing to establish himself as a thought leader in the global cybersecurity scene.
In a major regional recognition, the company was featured in The Recursive’s first report mapping cybersecurity and defense innovation in Central and Eastern Europe, positioned as one of the pioneers shaping the future of the sector. Plainsea was also the only company in the report profiled through an in-depth interview with its CEO, further validating the strength of the product and the expertise of the team behind it.
Operationally, Plainsea became one of the first companies within the Ocean Investments ecosystem to implement AI directly into its products and services.

Resolute
Resolute continued its strong growth trajectory in 2025 through the launch of AI Jumpstart, a fast-track GenAI implementation service that delivers a fully functional, domain-specific AI assistant in just 4-6 weeks. Built using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and deployed within the client’s environment, AI Jumpstart enables enterprises to move beyond the AI hype with secure, source-cited, production-ready solutions based on their own data.
The company continued to expand its client portfolio in the healthcare sector, maintaining its leading position in the industry, and reached its annual revenue target as early as November, underscoring strong demand and disciplined execution.

Looking Ahead
As Ocean Investments moves into 2026, the group is embarking on a strategic transformation focused on building a more decentralized, adaptive, and human-centered organizational structure. This evolution is designed to empower our companies with greater autonomy, accelerate decision-making, and foster closer, more meaningful relationships with clients, teams, and the communities we serve.
This direction has already been recognized with the Emergent Excellence Award, which Ocean Investments received in September, in recognition of its early progress toward decentralization and more connected ways of working.
2026 marks the next chapter for Ocean Investments, aligning growth with resilience, collaboration, and long-term impact across our entire portfolio. Stay tuned for more. We’ll soon share more about how we will transform the way we think, collaborate, and grow in the new year and beyond.
