About us
We are a fast-moving, intensely curious early-stage investment group. We seek exceptional, inspired founders from around the world who will set the course for ground-breaking innovation in mobility, security, and the future of flight. Our vision is to continuously ignite interest in the wonder that is aerospace. Airbus is in our DNA, from our legacy of innovation and industry expertise to our global network. It is an asset to every company we fund, if and when they want it. Yet we operate with autonomy and trust, from the investments we make to the technologies they develop; we independently support entrepreneurs with unique ideas, plans, and structures. We are headquartered in Silicon Valley and Paris and fund start-ups across the globe. We are a valuable, efficient, and energetic partner to those who recognize that advances in aerospace will impact all life on Earth and beyond. We welcome hearing from founders working hard to transform any facet of our industry. From urban air mobility, to connected fleets, to digital development and manufacturing, to advanced energy and propulsion. Quite literally, there is no limit.

The collaboration between Atlas AI and Airbus SE is a testament to how #AI-driven insights can inform strategic decision-making, enabling Airbus to anticipate market dynamics and optimize their planning in emerging #aviation hubs. We are proud to be at the forefront of this transformative journey, helping to build #supplychains that are not only resilient but also aligned with sustainable growth. 🔗 Check out the full article to learn more about how we're making an impact: https://lnkd.in/eK_DgPZZ
🛫 Excited to share our latest milestone at Atlas AI! Last week we announced our collaboration with Airbus SE, the global aerospace leader, to deploy Atlas AI’s geospatial AI (#GeoAI) platform for long-term demand sensing in global aviation supply chains. This initiative is designed to provide the analytical tools and predictive capabilities for Airbus to incorporate hyperlocal aviation market forecasts and inform supply chain and commercial strategies for some of the most rapidly growing aviation markets globally.

“This partnership with Meyer Burger allows Solestial to take the next step in scaling production, delivering for our customers, and meeting the ever-growing demand for reliable, cost-effective, and abundant #energy in #space,” said Stan Herasimenka, CEO of Solestial.
We are incredibly excited to share that Solestial has entered a strategic manufacturing partnership with Meyer Burger to accelerate scaling the production of our next-generation silicon solar cells for space. With space-ready solar demand for spacecraft alone projected to outstrip supply by as much as 10x by 2030, this partnership will help Solestial ensure it is prepared to meet market demand and deliver its silicon solar solutions for the constellations of today and the next-generation infrastructure applications of tomorrow. “This partnership with Meyer Burger allows Solestial to take the next step in scaling production, delivering for our customers, and meeting the ever-growing demand for reliable, cost-effective, and abundant energy in space,” said Stan Herasimenka, CEO of Solestial.

#Quantum sensors rely on the laws of nature to access signatures that were previously out of reach, delivering both extreme sensitivity and stability. As a result, quantum-assured navigation can deliver defense against GPS outages and enable transformational new missions. Discover more form Q-CTRL CEO Michael Biercuk in his latest op-ed in Fortune.
GPS has become so ubiquitous in our daily lives that we hardly think about what happens when it’s not available - or trusted. How do we navigate an era of GPS denial, jamming, and spoofing? This is where #QuantumSensing comes into play. Discover how "software ruggedization" can make GPS-free navigation with GPS-like positioning accuracy a reality in the field.
Reliable GPS is coming to an end—but new quantum technologies could show the path forward
