Was Beyond Aero tut

Beyond Aero is building the first electric business aircraft powered by hydrogen propulsion, enabling six passengers to fly up to 800 NM (1,500 km), a range unattainable with battery-electric aircraft. Founded in December 2020, the company is redesigning the architecture of an aircraft around hydrogen-electric propulsion, focusing on fuel cell technology, gaseous hydrogen tank integration, and advanced cooling systems. With offices in Toulouse, Paris, and Los Angeles, the company boasts a team of over 80 highly qualified engineers from leading aerospace companies. Beyond Aero has secured over $50 million in funding, backed by investors such as Giant Ventures, Bpifrance, and prior supporters like Initialized Capital, Female Founders Fund, and 7 Percent Ventures. Beyond Aero also completed Y Combinator in 2022. The company has secured $1.5bn in Letters of Intent (LOIs), completed France’s first manned, fully hydrogen-electric flight, and acquired Universal Hydrogen Co.'s assets, IP, and flight data. Beyond Aero is a member of the World Economic Forum’s First Movers Coalition and the Alliance for Zero Emission Aviation, underscoring its commitment to electrifying aviation with hydrogen propulsion.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Electric business aircraft with hydrogen propulsion

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building the first electric business aircraft powered by hydrogen propulsion. Our plane carries six passengers up to 800 nautical miles - farther than battery-electric planes can go. We redesigned aircraft architecture around fuel cells, hydrogen tanks, and advanced cooling to solve the range and weight challenges of zero-emission aviation.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We have offices in Toulouse, Paris, and Los Angeles. After YC, we plan to maintain our multinational setup with engineering teams in France and the US.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Being close to Europe's historic aerospace hubs in Toulouse and Paris gives us access to top talent and aerospace suppliers. Los Angeles helps with US market access and investor relations.
