Ambitious Air Mobility Group and Zuri  signed binding investment terms to advance the development, certification, and deployment of Zuri’s hybrid-electric VTOL aircraft platform for passenger, cargo, and defence applications. The investment also supports unmanned and optionally piloted variants developed for cargo and defence operations. The agreement establishes a framework for collaboration in three core areas:

  • Strategic investment: AAMG joins as a long-term industrial and financial partner supporting Zuri’s hybrid-electric aircraft program and business growth.
  • Aircraft orders: AAMG will place forward orders for unmanned and optionally piloted aircraft for logistics, cargo, and defence operations.
  • Program collaboration: Joint initiatives will focus on accelerating certification readiness and preparing for commercial production and operational deployment.

Michal Illich, CEO, Zuri.com SE, commented: “AAMG brings not only investment but also experience and an international network that strengthens our ability to accelerate certification and production toward operational deployment. This partnership reinforces Zuri’s mission to deliver sustainable hybrid-electric aviation across defence and civilian markets.”

Robert Kamp, CEO & Senior Partner, AAMG, stated: “This partnership marks a clear step toward delivering transformative long-range regional capabilities through hybrid-electric aviation. Zuri’s manned and unmanned platforms provide class-leading performance for both cargo and civilian VTOL operations. They have a compelling vision that maximises the impact of our vertiport network and regional air mobility.”
