In our latest episode we are joined by Dr Mohamed Attia, co-founder and CEO of NEX Aero, to discuss the Berlin-based company's work in developing hybrid-electric hydrogen fuel cell-powered VTOL drones for long-range cargo delivery. 

An aeronautical engineer, formerly of Airbus and Rolls-Royce, Attia believes his background shaped his approach to innovation in aviation. 

NEX Aero focuses on addressing logistical challenges in remote regions by providing cost-effective and sustainable alternatives to helicopters. Attia emphasises the importance of market-driven design to ensure aircraft offer economic advantages over what exists today.

We also cover why Attia believes hydrogen is better than batteries for long-range aviation, despite infrastructure challenges.
