Archer Aviation is designing and developing electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft for use in urban air mobility networks. The company is partnering with cities across the country to submit multiple applications to launch initial air taxi operations under the White House’s eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (eIPP), a first-of-its-kind public-private initiative led by the US Department of Transportation and Federal Aviation Administration to support the safe integration of air taxis in the US beginning as soon as this year.
Adam Goldstein is the founder of Archer and has served as its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors since the company was listed on the NYSE in 2021. He discusses the prospects for an expansive eVTOL rollout in the near-term with Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec on Bloomberg Businessweek Daily.
