When all traffic is stopped for a life-saving delivery   🚑🚨 In emergencies, every second counts. Around the world, essential goods - from industrial supplies and emergency relief to urgently needed medical items - often face delays due to traffic, infrastructure gaps, and topographical barriers. This can lead to tragic losses or to dramatic downtimes and outages.   🇧🇷 A remarkable recent example from Brazil underscores this challenge. In Rio de Janeiro, police halted the Linha Vermelha expressway to ensure a liver donation could reach a hospital in time. Without a helipad, ground transport was the only option, and the delay due to Rio’s traffic could have meant the difference between life and death.   📊 This scenario highlights a stark reality: even the world’s most advanced systems, such as the U.S. organ transport network, still struggle, with 5-10% of organ transplants compromised by logistical issues.   ✈️ While the organ transport is just one example out of many, the point is clear: Delivery drones can play a crucial role in simplifying logistics and in overcoming logistical challenges to deliver mission-critical supplies. They reduce the dependence on road networks plagued by traffic jams or other barriers – all while being a much more sustainable alternative to ground-based transport or shipment by plane or helicopter.    #Wingcopter #DroneDelivery #LogisticsInnovation #LifeSavingTechnology #FutureOfLogistics #HealthcareTransformation #OrganTransport #MedicalLogistics #Drones4Good #OrganTransplant

“Together, we thrive” truly resonated as this year’s motto at the UPS Healthcare Forum in Budapest, Hungary. The Forum is an inspiring event that brings together visionaries and trailblazers from healthcare, life sciences, and supply chain logistics.   Our Chief Revenue Officer Armando Koerig Gessinger and Head of Experience Joerg Scheuerpflug experienced insightful discussions about new ways of delivering innovative, quality solutions for patients, for example precision logistics for advanced therapies (Doaa Fathallah & Dan Bell from Marken) or the power of Public-Private Partnerships to achieve equitable health (Caroline Wanjiru Kiunga, Ben Safari, Bertrand Pedersen, Amira Ghouaibi). It was also fascinating to learn about all the forces that have an impact on individual health and healthcare systems by Daniel Gagnon and to dive deeper into the challenges of delivering healthcare supplies just in time on a massive scale by Felipe Morgulis.   Thank you, UPS Healthcare, for the invitation and the opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations on how to improve access to health through our delivery drones. The Forum was truly a hub for innovation, knowledge-sharing, and collaboration. We’re looking forward to further productive discussions and to thriving together.   Photo credit: UPS Healthcare and Armando Koerig Gessinger #Wingcopter #UPS #healthcare #impact #DroneDelivery

Beyond drones: How we're committed to sustainability in every journey At Wingcopter, we believe that sustainability is more than just a goal – it’s a responsibility. With our all-electric delivery drones, we can offset a significant portion of the CO2 emissions from ground-based transportation, helping the logistics industry on its path to net-zero. But we know it takes more than innovative products to drive meaningful change. 🚲 That’s why we proudly joined the CITY CYCLING initiative in our municipal (Weiterstadt), where 11 of our colleagues pledged to cycling as many daily journeys as possible over a 21-day period. This challenge not only encouraged environmentally friendly commuting but also aimed to highlight the needs of cyclists and promote better local cycling infrastructure. 📊 The result? Together with other teams from Weiterstadt, a total of 73,510 kilometers were cycled, avoiding an equivalent of 12 tons of CO2! What an achievement! 🌳 At Wingcopter, we don’t just talk about sustainability – we act on it. From corporate bike leasing to free electric vehicle charging at the office, we are committed to creating a cleaner, greener future in every way we can. #Wingcopter #Sustainability #CityCycling #Cycling #DroneDelivery #Logistics #SustainableLogistics #Teamspirit Thanks to our cyclists Corinna, Thomas, Konstantin, Philipp, Patrick, Paul, Eike, Esma, Andreas, Kevin and Miguel.

🌍🚁 Paving the way for a sustainable future with innovation and courage We are excited to have participated in the EIB 2024 Parliamentary Evening in Berlin, centered around the inspiring theme: “Courage for Change: Innovation and Investment in Germany.” The event was a vibrant discussion on shaping Germany’s future, emphasizing sustainability and the energy transition.   Our CEO, Tom Plümmer, represented Wingcopter, connecting with key partners like Nicola Beer and gaining valuable insights from Dr. Florian Toncar, Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Ministry of Finance. We’re proud to be one of the inspiring examples of cutting-edge technology, with the European Investment Bank (EIB)’s support already making a significant impact. Their investment in Wingcopter is helping us expand production of our flagship Wingcopter 198, accelerate our delivery services and continue pushing the boundaries of drone technology.   🚀 The road ahead is clear: Germany's innovative strength can drive the energy transition, but it will take targeted investments and a bold mindset. We’re committed to playing our part and shaping a sustainable future for all. Let’s continue leading change for a better, greener world.   #EIB #Innovation #Sustainability #DroneDelivery #EnergyTransition #Investment #Wingcopter #Drones4Good #LogisticsInnovation #SustainableTransport

HACK of a Team Back in 2018, Wingcopter pioneered the delivery of children’s vaccines by drone in Vanuatu. Several other world-firsts followed in the subsequent years. Pioneering and innovation have always been a part of our DNA and have allowed us to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly emerging & developing industry.    The Wingcopter Innovation Hackathon was introduced as a 24-hour sprint where multi-disciplinary teams work together to hack drone-specific challenges, including advanced computing and measurement solutions powered by NVIDIA's cutting-edge technology. Once more, it is rewarding to experience the power of cross-functional collaboration, team spirit, exceptional engineering talent – and a good Chili con Carne prepared by our Heads of Engineering and Software. #Wingcopter #InnovationDay #Hackathon #Innovation #Innovate #NVIDIA #TeamWorkMakesTheDreamWork #Deliverydrone
