Joby: Vertically Integrated Leader of the eVTOL Era
Joby's vertically integrated business model accurately aligns with the core needs of the eVTOL industry in the early commercialization stage--technology validation and operational capability. This business model is firmly supported by its leading airworthiness certification progress, support from industrial shareholders, and global commercialization layout. Over the next 1-2 years, the final approval of FAA type certification and the successful launch of commercial operations in Dubai in 2026 will be critical milestones, transitioning the company from R&D-driven to revenue-driven growth. With the scaling of core scenarios and the diversification of markets and use cases, Joby is well-positioned to become the first to validate the feasibility of the eVTOL business model, initiating a new growth trajectory for air travel.
Low-Altitude Economy in China: Opportunities, Scenarios and Challenges Ahead
China attaches great importance to the development of the low-altitude economy, which has been incorporated into national-level planning documents multiple times since 2021. In 2023, the Central Economic Work Conference designated it as a strategic emerging industry, and in 2024, it was written in the government work report for the first time and categorized as a new quality productive force. According to estimates from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), the market size of China's low-altitude economy is projected to reach 1.5 trillion yuan by 2025 and 3.5 trillion yuan by 2035. Then, why is China actively developing the low-altitude economy? What are its application scenarios? What difficulties are currently hindering its development?
