South East Angels invests in air traffic control startup Skyverse

Brighton-based angel investment group South East Angels has invested in Skyverse – a startup providing technology solutions to air traffic control teams.

Skyverse helps airports modernise away from traditional processes to a cloud workflow solution that provides more data, transparency and insight to a control tower.

This allows regional and general aviation airports to access the same standard of tools typically delivered to the major international airports.

Skyverse’s SaaS tools replace air traffic services’ paper-based processes and a significant volume of repetitious radio and telephone communications.

The tools share clearer, faster and richer information between air traffic services and their network of users. This cuts controller and assistant workload while improving safety and situational awareness.

With the backing of South East Angels as part of its seed round, Skyverse is looking to continue its growth internationally, helping small airports reduce costs and increase safety.

Kristina Pereckaite, managing director of South East Angels, said: “We’re thrilled to be investing in Skyverse, who identified a market in need of modernising and built a product that can deliver real value across the world.”
