CHESEAUX-SUR-LAUSANNE, Switzerland “ senseFly, through its parent organization Parrot (PARRO : FP), has recapitalized its balance sheet and funding, guaranteeing a healthy operational outlook as it continues its growth path as the global leader in fixed-wing drones.

The financial backing comes at a particularly meaningful time for senseFly Рan Ecole Polytechnique F̩d̩rale de Lausanne (EPFL) spin-off Рwhich celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Since its inception, senseFly has flown over 1 million flights, mapped an estimated 500,000 square kms and generated over USD $ 100 million in revenue.
