Azur Drones

Azur Drones is a French company specializing in autonomous drone-in-a-box solutions for surveillance, inspection, and operational support. Its flagship product, Skeyetech, is an advanced platform designed to operate 24/7, remotely controlled beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS). Skeyetech is the most widely deployed drone-in-a-box solution globally, adopted by demanding industrial and government entities worldwide.

Leveraging a decade of experience, Azur Drones has deployed its expertise in over 10 countries across Europe, the Middle East, APAC, and South America. With a team of over 65 employees, the company was the first to receive BVLOS flight approval in France and is trusted by stringent regulators worldwide. Azur Drones has evolved into a trusted leader in drone-in-a-box solutions, offering field-proven systems that provide advanced aerial data.

In May 2023, Azur Drones launched Skeyetech E2, a multi-application platform capable of carrying up to three sensor systems simultaneously. This highly connected, 5G-operational system meets unprecedented aviation standards and offers configurable charging times, rapid charging for intensive use, and hot-swappable batteries for extended flight times during crises.

Skeyetech E2 is a game-changer, providing a turnkey solution that delivers accurate and recurrent aerial data for security, industrial operations support, and environmental protection. It caters to various needs across departments within the same company, offering a comprehensive service from site studies to operational deployment and remote system operation.
