Hamburg, 10\/05\/2021<\/strong> \u2013 FlyNex recently closed another financing round worth millions of euros to develop new business areas and expand its current business. The entry of STIHL as an investor creates a strategic partnership to use drones as tools for data collection and analysis in different areas such as forestry and horticulture in the coming years.<\/p>\n

In addition to the new commitment of STIHL Digital GmbH, the financing round is completed by investments from HTGF, TGFS – Technologiegr\u00fcnderfonds Sachsen, GPS Ventures, and Snowflake Ventures. The repeated participation of existing investors in the current round demonstrates the confidence in FlyNex to develop into a leading drone data platform.<\/p>\n

To date, FlyNex is the only platform in Europe to offer holistic digital services to companies in seven European countries, focusing on the energy supply, telecommunications, and construction and real estate industries. In addition to collecting data by drones, FlyNex also offers a comprehensive, seamless service from advising the customer through implementation to evaluating and using the acquired data.<\/p>\n

The partnership with STIHL, known in around 160 countries as a leading manufacturer of quality products for forestry, municipalities, crafts, construction, and gardening, allows FlyNex to expand its offering to different industries and target groups. STIHL also sees many advantages in the liaison. “We have spent a long time looking throughout the international markets for innovative solutions in this area and are convinced that we have found the right partner in FlyNex,” says Benjamin Junghans, Director at STIHL Digital GmbH. Both partners are convinced that they can develop solutions based on drone data that are of interest to many STIHL customers.<\/p>\n

“With our end-to-end platform, we offer companies automated drones and artificial intelligence for data collection and real-time decision-making. We enable companies to create and process data in a way that only digital aerospace companies can,” said Andreas Dunsch, CEO of FlyNex.<\/p>\n
