Deal Will “Create High-Paying, High-Quality Jobs”
Aura Aero and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University signed a memorandum of understanding at the Paris Air Show, agreeing to “establish a major footprint” for the brand in the school's Daytona Beach Research Park.
The Florida-France partnership is a new one for many, but Aura Aero thinks its arrival in the US will allow it to “create some 20 exceptional new jobs in Volusia County as well as internships for student pilots.” Since its foundation in 2017, Embry-Riddle’s Research Park has “served 25 leading and emerging companies while creating 174 lucrative jobs and 224 internships.” Aura Aero will also use the occasion to launch an internship program for ERAU students looking to work on and learn everything they can about the brand’s electric Integrale aircraft.
“Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University plays an important role shaping Florida’s next generation of top-tier talent in aerospace,” said Lieutenant Governor Nuñez. “Their MOU with Aura Aero demonstrates the importance of this event and its ability to create meaningful partnerships between Florida and France in order to enhance our state’s workforce development. Together, we look to strengthen our aerospace sectors by creating a pipeline to meet demand.”
“Aura Aero is committed to serving humankind by designing and manufacturing aircraft that accelerate air transport decarbonization,” said company co-founder and CEO Jérémy Caussade, who also serves as the company’s chief engineer. “We are excited to partner with Embry-Riddle, a global leader in aviation education, to accelerate innovation and prepare pilots for a more sustainable future.”
