In addition, fusion/pti co-hosted a conference during 2025 and provided on-demand, online learning opportunities, serving the needs of government it, and education, with roughly 500 individuals attending. The net result of these activities totaled approximately 358k, with revenues from attendee registrations and sponsorships. Earnings from these programs offset direct and indirect costs related to supporting the success of these programs and the administrative costs for the organization.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $587k to $332k (−43%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 12% · 2021 15% · 2025 13%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
