Urban Ray secures six-figure pre-seed round

The air logistics startup secures a six-figure investment in its pre-seed funding round. Urban Ray aims to accelerate the shift from land-based to air-based logistics solutions.

Urban Ray is launching its market entry in the medical logistics sector, where cost pressures and challenges are particularly high. The young company has ambitious plans to subsequently establish itself further in urban areas in a variety of application fields.

Urban Ray is accelerating the transition to aerial logistics through a brilliant drone station concept.
