    Participated · Series D · Jul 2025

    SkyDrive develops electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft and is targeting a commercial service launch in 2028. The company is working to obtain type certification for its aircraft and to build mass-production capabilities ahead of that launch. SkyDrive says recent funding from Resona Asset Management will strengthen its business foundation and accelerate aircraft development. The firm positioned the investment as a crossover placement by a public-equity-focused institutional investor, signaling confidence in its growth trajectory. SkyDrive cites Japan’s July 2026 “Japan Growth Strategy” and increased public-private focus on aviation and space as supportive context for its plans. The company intends to use the capital to drive sustainable enterprise value toward its 2028 commercialization goal.
