VORTEX Aerotec

VORTEX is developing Ventus, a fuel-cell-powered long-range eVTOL drone for middle mile logistics, offering 500 km range, 50 kg payload capacity, and rapid five-minute refueling. Unlike short-range battery drones or gas turbine competitors, Ventus combines low emissions, large cargo space, and compact design with GNSS-PPP precision navigation for safe BVLOS operations. Backed by IP in aerodynamics, hybrid power control, and fuel cell integration, the experienced VORTEX team is targeting a fast-growing $3B market with a scalable OEM approach.

Hypersonica

Hypersonica will focus their efforts on developing a viable hypersonic flight geometry which will fit the needs of glide and cruise applications for hypersonic planes. During the incubation period, Hypersonica aims to lie the foundation of our flight geometry, but we will not be able to present a finished product and therefore anticipate demonstrating an initial geometry in hypersonic flow.
