starcopter closes with seven figures

The manufacturer of unmanned aerial systems starcopter has successfully completed a seven-figure financing round. The investment round was led by BraWo Capital Group.

With the capital, the startup will expand its team, finalize the product design and conduct the final testing phase to certify the high-performance drone for the EU market. It will also lay the building blocks for a European production line and prepare for market entry in the EU.

With the funds provided, we will be able to achieve the set goals on the way to market entry.

The investment represents a milestone for the company, which has developed a high-performance drone. In the process, battery wear could be reduced by up to 90% compared to world-leading flight systems. This is an important prerequisite for making future application areas such as parcel transport or automated inspection economical.

As part of the BraWo Group, we are therefore on the lookout for mature and marketable innovations with our BraWo Capital Group, not only regionally but also nationwide. We are pleased to have found this in starcopter GmbH.

Thomas Zechner, Managing Director BraWo Capital Management GmbH

Electric flying in professional applications currently remains a challenge, as modern high-performance batteries are costly and wear out quickly. Payload capacities and flight times are limited, restricting many applications. starcopter plans to address these challenges with an industrial product that meets the requirements for demanding applications.
