Speedbird and Moya Aero Enter Strategic Partnership in Drone Logistics

São José dos Campos — April 13, 2026 — Moya Aero and Speedbird announced today the signing of a nonbinding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore a strategic collaboration aimed at advancing drone logistics and next-generation aerial mobility solutions.

The MoU established a structured framework for the two aerospace innovators to evaluate operational synergies, technology integration, and potential long-term partnership models—while maintaining full independence and without creating binding commercial commitments.

“This exploratory collaboration would allow us to continue to focus on our core delivery missions and capabilities, while looking at expanding the range of solutions we can potentially offer to customers—sharing operational commonality in a way that is unprecedented in the drone industry.” Says Manoel Coelho, CEO of Speedbird Aero

“This MoU allows us to explore how our large capacity eVTOL platform can complement Speedbird’s real-world BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operational expertise and software ecosystem.” Adds Alexandre Zaramela, CEO of Moya Aero, “Together, we can accelerate and de-risk the deployment of a growing portfolio of advanced aerial logistics solutions.”

A Shared Vision for Scalable Aerial Logistics

The collaboration will focus on identifying opportunities to combine Moya’s large capacity tilt-body eVTOL with Speedbird’s certified drone logistics operations and software ecosystem. Areas of exploration include:

Interoperability between aircraft, systems, and Command & Control platforms Operational synergies in drone logistics and coordinated go-to-market strategies Joint access to grants, public funding, innovation programs, and industry forums Together, the companies aim to evaluate an integrated fleet offering ranging from small drones to large eVTOL aircraft, enabling scalable logistics solutions for diverse markets. The MoU highlights the complementary capabilities and product lines of both companies, spanning from under 25kg (55lbs) to up to 600kg (1320 lbs) of Maximum Take-Off Weight (MTOW). Initial efforts will prioritize opportunities in the Americas, with optional future evaluation of Europe and Asia.

“This agreement reflects a shared belief that the future of aerial logistics will be built through collaboration across complementary technologies and capabilities.” Says Andre Stein Board Director and President, Americas, at Speedbird and Moya “Moya and Speedbird are true pioneers in Advanced Air Mobility, having helped shape this next chapter in aviation history.”
