Skyports, a pioneering British drone manufacturer, is gearing up to launch Europe’s first air taxis in 2026. After securing a substantial $110 million in funding, the company is poised to revolutionize urban transportation with its electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. Skyports has already demonstrated the potential of eVTOLs through successful transport and surveillance tests. This significant financial boost brings the concept of commercial air taxis closer to becoming a reality for passenger transport.

The areas in which this hardware (camera-equipped drone) can be deployed are determined by the software and services built around it.
