Introducing the Sustainable Aero Lab
The next great leap of aviation will be towards a climate neutral future.
It took only 50 years to get from the Wright Brothers to the jet age. Since then, aviation has become a lot safer, more reliable and affordable for many. Yet aviation has been in a state of evolution for the past 60 years. We want to change this and get back to a disruptive state of mind.
The aviation industry has historically been the most innovative when facing crises. We are facing our biggest global crisis today: climate change. With this, aviation will once again leap forward - unlocking new fields of technology and business. It’s time to start the journey.
Process driven with no application deadlines.
Startups are being mentored in four iterative sessions throughout the year.
Startups collaborate with some of the worlds best experts in startups, aviation, venture capital and sciences help accelerate projects into commercially viable businesses. We have no application deadlines - startups can join the program throughout the year!
