All of 20, Naman Pushp of Airbound is one of India’s rising deeptech prodigies.
His passion for physics helped him land a breakthrough tail-sitter drone technology that is ultra-light, energy-efficient and globally unique for low-cost deliveries.
With $10 million funding in the bag, and another mega round stitched together, Naman is moving fast. His team of 70 has already manufactured over a hundred of these super-efficient delivery drones.
The Startup Policy Forum team visited the Airbound office in Bengaluru to witness firsthand how this innovation is being turned into reality.
From watching upright rocket-like launches that transition to plane-like cruising, to understanding carbon fiber frames that enable ultra-light designs, it was a fascinating experience to spend time with Naman and his team.
