About Aviant

Aviant AS was founded in the beginning of 2020 when the founders met at MIT.

Origin

The idea for Aviant was sparked by the logistics issues identified by the COVID-19 pandemic the recent European drone regulations from January 2021. The desire for better solutions in the medical sector allowed Aviant to quickly secure a pilot contract with St. Olavs Hospital in Norway.

Long distances in harsh weather

In February 2021, the team successfully completed their first autonomous flight of between Trondheim and Røros. This route of 120 km was the longest autonomous drone flight over land in Norway. Since then, Aviant has flown a variety of routes in Scandinavia in a multitude of weather conditions, with winds as high as 18 m/s and temperatures as low as -26 °C.

Milestones

By the end of 2021, Aviant operated three paying contracts in the healthcare sector. Furthermore, we won "Stage Two", the pan-European competition for the best startups spinning out of leading European universities, conducted home deliveries of rapid test kits in Sweden, supported a leading Norwegian dairy producer with milk sample transportation and took over the regular transportation of COVID-samples for St. Olavs Hospital in Røros.
