Electro Ventures Orders 10 Jump Aero JA1 Pulse eVTOL Aircraft

Elec­tro Ven­tures, a West­ern Aus­tralian sus­tain­able inno­va­tion hold­ings com­pa­ny, has placed an order for ten Jump Aero JA1 Pulse eVTOL air­craft, hav­ing worked with Jump Aero through one of its port­fo­lio com­pa­nies Elec­tro Aero.

Elec­tro Ven­tures paid a non-refund­able deposit to order ten Jump Aero Pulse eVTOL air­craft, for use in the Aus­tralian mar­ket and signed an agree­ment to rep­re­sent Jump Aero in the Asia Pacif­ic region.

Elec­tro Ven­tures has a strong pres­ence in Aus­tralia and believes that the tech­nol­o­gy that Jump Aero will pro­vide can make a sig­nif­i­cant impact in pro­vid­ing rur­al emer­gency med­ical response for Aus­tralian cit­i­zens liv­ing in remote rur­al con­di­tions.

Elec­tro Ven­tures found­ing inno­va­tion part­ner Joshua Port­lock com­ment­ed: “We are con­fi­dent our expe­ri­ence and strong rela­tion­ship with the reg­u­la­tor will fast track com­mer­cial oper­a­tions to pro­vide this valu­able capa­bil­i­ty to rur­al com­mu­ni­ties in Aus­tralia and neigh­bour­ing coun­tries. This com­mit­ment demon­strates the strength of our con­vic­tion in Jump Aero’s high-speed Pulse air­craft design, tech­nol­o­gy and busi­ness mod­el.”

The JA1 Pulse can fly one trained pro­fes­sion­al plus emer­gency equip­ment to unim­proved land­ing zones in rur­al areas. Jump Aero’s mis­sion is to lever­age elec­tric ver­ti­cal take­off and land­ing (eVTOL) air­craft tech­nol­o­gy to help save lives by reduc­ing emer­gency response times in rur­al areas. Jump Aero is head­quar­tered in Petaluma, Cal­i­for­nia with satel­lite offices in San­ta Paula, Cal­i­for­nia and Chelsea, Mass­a­chu­setts.

Elec­tro Ven­tures is an entre­pre­neur-led ven­ture hold­ings com­pa­ny advanc­ing sus­tain­able inno­va­tion with a port­fo­lio of sus­tain­able ecosys­tem com­pa­nies, either found­ed and grown from the ground up or invest­ed in at an ear­ly stage. It finds, nur­tures and grows oth­er com­ple­men­tary sus­tain­abil­i­ty inno­va­tion com­pa­nies solv­ing real-world renew­able ener­gy and elec­tric mobil­i­ty prob­lems.

Ear­li­er this month, Fal­ck bought an option for Jump Aero’s eVTOL JA1 Pulse air­craft, designed to help pilot-para­medics fly to a heart attack or stroke vic­tim.
