Intelligent Infrastructure

Low Altitude Economy

Airspace is the newest layer of infrastructure a region owns — and almost nobody has organised an ecosystem around it yet. Drones, eVTOL, and urban air mobility are turning the space below commercial flight altitude into a genuine transport and logistics layer. We build the ecosystems that let regions lead it rather than regulate it after the fact.

THE OPPORTUNITY

The low altitude economy — drone logistics, urban air mobility, eVTOL aircraft, and the airspace management systems that make them safe to operate at scale — is moving from demonstration flights to commercial infrastructure faster than most regulatory frameworks can keep up with. This is a rare vertical where the physical asset (airspace) is entirely unclaimed: no legacy infrastructure to retrofit, no incumbent to displace, just a first-mover advantage for whichever region builds the ecosystem — manufacturers, operators, airspace management systems, and regulation — before the market matures elsewhere.


POTENTIAL LOCATIONS

  • Cyberjaya, Malaysia — existing technology-cluster infrastructure and testbed appetite

  • Batam, Indonesia — special economic zone status well suited to regulatory sandboxing

  • Clark, Philippines — former airbase with aviation-oriented infrastructure already in place

  • Guangzhou/Shenzhen, China — reference market where low altitude economy policy and commercial activity are already established


KEY STAKEHOLDERS

  • Civil aviation authorities — set airspace certification and BVLOS permissioning

  • Drone and eVTOL manufacturers — the airframe and systems supply base

  • UTM technology providers — build the traffic management layer that lets multiple operators share airspace

  • Logistics, delivery, and inspection operators — the commercial demand side of the ecosystem

  • Telecom providers — supply the connectivity infrastructure low-altitude operations depend on

WHAT THIS ECOSYSTEM INCLUDES

  • Airframe and systems manufacturing — drone and eVTOL manufacturers, and the component supply chains that support them

  • Airspace management infrastructure — unmanned traffic management (UTM) systems that let multiple operators share low-altitude airspace safely

  • Operator ecosystem — logistics, delivery, inspection, and urban air mobility operators using the airspace commercially

  • Vertiport and ground infrastructure — landing, charging, and maintenance infrastructure for eVTOL and drone fleets

  • Regulatory sandbox — airspace certification, beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) permissions, and safety frameworks built alongside the operators who need them

HOW WE BUILD IT

Low altitude economy ecosystems are unusually front-loaded on Policy — because the airspace itself can't be commercially used at scale until certification and traffic management frameworks exist, the regulatory sandbox has to be built in parallel with the first pilot operations, not after them. We connect manufacturers, UTM technology providers, and operators to test real routes and use cases early, then sequence vertiport and ground infrastructure investment to match proven demand rather than building capacity speculatively. Because this is a genuinely new vertical for most regulators, our Shared Services bench of aviation, airspace, and regulatory specialists does disproportionate work in the early Diagnose and Build stages of the Engagement Arc.
