Our take
TrustFlight develops intelligent workflow automation platforms and other tools with the aim of improving levels of efficiency and safety across the aviation sector. Currently, the company’s suite of products caters to maintenance programmes, technical support, tech and engine logs, and operational and equipment management.
It’s a slim sector to be operating in - and one would think it would pit TrustFlight head to head with a prohibitively strong slew of industry giants. TrustFlight, however, is seeing good growth - and has even partnered with the likes of Boeing to bring blockchain verification methods to aviation supply chains.
This integration of sourcing and the blockchain is proving a smart and lucrative bet across various industries, given the tightening regulatory focus on promoting supply chain oversight. It’s just one example of how TrustFlight is leveraging its deeptech expertise to digitally transform aviation. Developments in this sector won’t happen fast, but they are critical, and highly influential. TrustFlight has its sights set on becoming an important player in the space.
