Get to know us
We started as a small engineering solutions firm Bodkin Technologies Pvt. Ltd. (Bodkin Tech), based in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India. The team comes with a plethora of experience in air-based, land-based and water-based (both surface and submersible) remotely operated unmanned systems, and has successfully developed multiple products for various applications in the past. After demonstrating the proof-of-concept for a novel and efficient drone design that can be scaled to the proportions of a manned aerial vehicle for mass transportation, we decided to move to Sharjah Research Technology and Innovation Park (SRTIP) for better growth prospects and future potential.
Our mission
We're on a mission to change the way the freight and people are being transported. AURORA Prime Drone Solutions and FlyBuzz Urban Air Mobility collectively represent a transformative force in advanced air mobility for carrying both cargo and passengers, offering cutting-edge solutions that redefine possibilities and shape the future of connected and efficient mobility.
Our vision
We envision a world where travel between cities is as seamless as hopping on a bus, but you’re soaring through the skies. Similarly, we envision a world where freight is transported with the ease of a truck on highway, but through the skies with far more speed and efficiency. That’s the future FlyBuzz and AURORA Prime are building!
