Air mobility is set to revolutionize the way we move people and goods. What was once a futuristic concept is now becoming reality: commercial flights have already launched in China and the Middle East, and Europe and the United States are gearing up for takeoff. The question is no longer if, but how fast this transformation will happen. What are the latest breakthroughs shaping air mobility? What does it take to scale operations globally and especially across Europe? And how will this innovation redefine transportation networks and urban planning as we know them?
While I love making things with technology, what gets me out of bed in the morning is helping people accomplish ambitious goals. My three decade career in Technology spans succesful startup exits, thought leadership, and delivering ambitious projects under difficult circumstances. The latter part of this career has focused on perhaps the most ambitious goals of all, that of electrifying our economy and modern world.
SkyZero.io began in 2023 as a project to track all electric aviation on the planet. The global map highlights aviation charging networks, airports with electrified aviation activity, and the OEMs that are leading the charge. Our mobile app for pilots provides critical logistics support for flight planning in this new era of aviation, and our enterprise data tools are the source for intelligence on electrified aviation.
