AURA AERO is launching its first European crowdfunding campaign, via Crowdcube, in parallel with its main fundraising. The crowdfunding campaign will run until the end of June.
This possibility to invest, even if modestly, is open to all, and will enable French and European subscribers to support the development of the company, while giving AURA AERO the opportunity to not only raise new funds, but also rally a community around its collective and human adventure.
This campaign will be in addition to the support which the company has received since its inception, from private shareholders and bondholders as well as the French State, the Occitanie Region, the BPI (French Public Investment Bank) and venture capital firm Innovacom. Thanks to this support, AURA AERO has already raised 70M € in the past five years.
Since its launch in 2018, the aircraft manufacturer has passed many steps and industrial milestones, and almost 250 collaborators are taking part in this success. Today Two aircraft (INTEGRAL R and INTEGRAL S) are already flying and their certification, as well as the first deliveries, are expected this year. The first flight of the 3rd aircraft, INTEGRAL E (electric two-seater), will take place in the upcoming days.
Jérémy Caussade, CEO of AURA AERO, says:«Because everyone can contribute to the decarbonization of air transport, AURA AERO gives everyone the possibility to subscribe to this crowdfunding campaign, according to their means. We are convinced that any support, whatever it may be, can make a difference and enable us to take a new step in our development. And because every little helps, let’s create, all together, tomorrow’s low-carbon aviation! ».
