“Drones, Delivery and the Sky-High Business of Logistics” Etienne Louvet, Founder & CEO of IONA Drones
We’re taking Irish innovation sky-high. In this week’s That Great Business Show, Conall Ó Móráin grills – politely – French founder Etienne Louvet of IONA Drones, the Galway-based start-up building autonomous aircraft to deliver parcels, medicine, even blood supplies.
Forget food-drop gimmicks – these drones will fly 200 km with 20 kg payloads and could make the Irish logistics industry airborne again. Is Ireland about to lead the EU in drone logistics? Can startups like IONA compete with Amazon Prime Air and Google Wing? How will the HSE, An Post and Irish Aviation Authority plug into this new economy? 🎧 Listen to find out how Galway might become Europe’s Drone Capital.
