About Beta Technologies
Beta Technologies takes a deliberately staged approach: certify the simpler fixed-wing CX300 first, then the ALIA-250 eVTOL that shares much of its systems. The strategy has produced revenue and flight hours while pure eVTOL programmes were still in ground test.
The CX300 received an FAA Special Airworthiness Certificate in November 2024, and in June 2025 Beta flew the first passenger-carrying electric aircraft flight in the United States, out of JFK. The company also built out a charging network along the US east coast that other operators can use, which is a quietly significant piece of infrastructure.
Beta listed publicly in November 2025 at roughly a USD 7.4 billion valuation, having raised over USD 1 billion privately. Customers include UPS with 10 firm aircraft and 150 options, United Therapeutics under a USD 48 million organ-transport contract, and the US Air Force through AFWERX.
