🏗️ Government Collaboration:
Both companies will work on developing AAM infrastructure, actively participating in the Indian government’s plans to establish 1,000 heliports and low-altitude air corridors, positioning themselves as key players in the country’s air mobility strategy.
🚀 Comprehensive AAM Solutions:
The agreement contemplates the joint development of products and services spanning the entire air mobility value chain, including physical demonstrations such as the integration of Urban-Air Port’s Air-One vertiport with the NALWA 5X eVTOL.
🤝 Mutual Commitment:
Urban-Air Port will offer Nalwa Aero preferential rights in AAM infrastructure programs in India, while Nalwa Aero will prioritize the deployment of its eVTOL fleet on Urban-Air Port platforms, fostering a long-term strategic collaboration.
With this partnership, Urban-Air Port and Nalwa Aero seek to accelerate the adoption of sustainable, flexible, and future-proof air mobility solutions in one of the world’s most dynamic markets.
