“CycloTech Establishes German Subsidiary in Bavaria”
Austria-based CycloTech, a leading aviation propulsion systems company, has expanded to Germany by establishing a subsidiary in Bavaria, reports a press release.
CycloTech, who is developing an innovative system based on the Voith-Schneider-Principle, has the backing of the Bavarian state government, who is offering strong support for this technology. Former State Minister and economic policy spokesperson of the CSU parliamentary group, Kerstin Schreyer, alongside Member of Parliament Maximilian Böltl, will assist the company.
Schreyer remarked, “Bavaria is the innovation hub for aviation and aerospace in Germany and with our Hightech Agenda Bavaria and the Aerospace Cluster, we provide an excellent platform for companies like CycloTech.”
He continued, “The unique CycloRotor propulsion systems offers Bavaria’s aviation industry crucial momentum for the next generation of sustainable mobility solutions. We will support the company in every way possible to establish this future technology here.”
While CycloTech’s HQ in Linz will continue to serve as its development and flight-testing centre, expanding into Bavaria is aimed at strengthening research and industrial collaborations.
The area around Taufkirchen/Ottobrunn offers strong potential, due to a strong industrial presence, innovation strength and scientific expertise, bolstered by a new aerospace faculty at the Technical University of Munich.

Dr. Marcus Bauer, CEO of CycloTech, commented, “Bavaria offers the perfect combination of aviation and automotive expertise, excellent research and development, as well as a strong political and economic environment. Here, we have the ideal conditions to actively shape the future of electric flight.”
Via the subsidiary, CycloTech aims to expand its R&D activities in Germany and, during the medium term, prepare the serial production of CycloRotor propulsion systems.
Maximilian Böltl, spokesperson for the Young Group of the CSU parliamentary faction, pointed out, “Bavaria, with its Hightech Agenda, strong networks, and excellent research institutions, is the ideal location for forward-thinking companies like CycloTech. We will actively support this journey because our goal is to keep innovations in Bavaria and establish new technology leaders.”
CycloTech is pursuing a long-term growth strategy with its expansion into the largest state of Germany.
Bauer continued,“This is not a short-term move but a strategic decision for the future. We are laying the foundation for a new era in aviation. The combination of European industrial expertise, strong research partnerships, and political initiatives such as the Hightech Agenda Bavaria provides the best environment for a new European success story that will benefit the entire world.”
