The award for “Technology Innovation of the Year” from Aviation Business Middle East is more than just a trophy. It is the result of innovative approaches to new technologies - and a testament to the courage to pursue these ideas resiliently. This requires a lot of #expertise and partners with whom you can confidently face any #challenge and overcome it in the interests of everyone involved. In this particular case, new technological developments in the field of a modern #HMI (Human-Machine Interface) have been awarded. In 2024, Manta Aircraft partnered with #HAYAT, the UAE's national organ and tissue donation program, to revolutionize organ transport with #hybrid-electric #eVSTOL solutions. Together, we aim to increase the efficiency of #medical #missions and improve patient outcomes through advanced air mobility #AAM. Together with Khalifa University, we are developing general new, but in this context also coordinated mission-specific, AI-based systems to ensure safety and automation for #VTOL and #STOL operations. This partnership reflects a shared vision to transform #healthcare and #aviation for a better #future. 🚀 This does not only apply to Khalifa University and Hayat, but to all our partners and the entire Manta Aircraft family. #AVBAwards #Innovation #AviationTechnology #FutureOfAviation #HealthcareTransformation #HSVTOL Khalifa University Ministry of Health and Prevention - UAE Barbara Lebar

At Manta Aircraft, we’ve always believed in designing solutions that go beyond the limits of conventional platforms. Our six-seater aircraft, combining #VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) and #STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) capabilities, is tailored to bridge urban air mobility with regional transport. But what truly sets us apart is how our vision aligns with the future of both military and commercial #aviation. For the #USAF and other demanding applications, the “ideal vehicle” is emerging as high-speed vertical takeoff-and-landing (HSVTOL) technology. #HSVTOL delivers an unparalleled combination of #speed, #range, #payload, and #endurance — #performance metrics essential not only for military missions but also for commercial operations. What’s more, #hybrid systems are gaining recognition as a critical interim solution for missions that require low sound profiles and minimal thermal signatures — exactly what we’ve been advocating from the start. At Manta, this isn’t just a concept; it’s our #DNA. The future of #Regional and Inter-regional #AAM is hybrid, high-speed, and transformative. #MantaAircraft #HSVTOL #FutureOfMobility #HybridAviation #UrbanAirMobility #RegionalTransport

🌟 GOLD! Technology Innovation of the Year! 🌟 We’re honored to receive the Technology Innovation of the Year award at the Aviation Business Middle East Awards 2024! 🏆 A huge thank you to our Partners Khalifa University & #Hayat - the National Program for Donation and Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissue in UAE (Ministry of Health and Prevention - UAE), the Aviation Business Middle East team and its experienced jury for this incredible acknowledgment, and congratulations to all the other winners and nominees who are driving innovation in our industry. More to come. #AVBAwards #Innovation #AviationTechnology #FutureOfAviation Aviation Business Middle East
