Beyond Aero
Aviation will be electric.
Unlocking full potential with hydrogen.
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)—five times farther than a battery-powered aircraft. Founded in December 2020, the company is redesigning the architecture of a CS23 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 startup boasts a team of over 70 highly qualified engineers from leading aerospace companies, actively recruiting 30 more.
Beyond Aero has secured over $44 million in funding, backed by investors such as Giant Ventures, Bpifrance, and prior supporters like Initialized Capital, Female Founders Found, and 7 Percent Ventures. Beyond Aero also completed Y Combinator in 2022. The company has secured $914 million in Letters of Intent (LOIs) for 108 aircraft and recently completed France's first manned, fully hydrogen-electric flight. 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 electrify aviation with hydrogen propulsion.
