Altitude Angel secures £5m from BT Group to expand drone superhighway network
The investment from BT Group will accelerate the rollout of ARROW technology and scale automated drone operations across the UK.
Altitude Angel provides unified traffic management software and drone superhighway infrastructure to safely integrate unmanned aerial vehicles into national airspace.
Altitude Angel has secured £5m in funding from BT Group to accelerate the expansion of its ARROW drone detection technology and support the development of nationwide airspace corridors. The investment will enable the company to extend its drone superhighway network beyond the initial 165-mile route and scale automated aerial logistics across the UK.
The partnership brings together Altitude Angel's unified traffic management platform and BT Group's telecommunications infrastructure. BT Group will serve as a key reseller of the software, provide network connectivity for the tower network, and take a seat on the board as part of the strategic collaboration.
