Korean drone delivery start-up UTM begins innovation in the sky by entering Malaysia

PABLO AIR was established in 2018 with a big dream to lead the global unmanned aerial vehicle market.

Starting with our own developed technology for drone swarm flight, PABLO AIR was the first in the Korean market to host 100 drones. Meanwhile, it successfully attracted seed funding from SM Entertainment’s general producer Lee Soo-man, who is a pioneer in K-pop cultural content.

It was the great foundation for the growth of PABLO AIR. Thanks to this, it exported drones for swarm flight and related equipment to Lebanon for the first time in Korea, which was recognized for its own value as the first Korean platform combining technology and culture.

PABLO AIR closed the pre-series B funding about 8 million dollars USD and it is making its footprint to move forward. PABLO AIR who has been recognized for its value and vision in Korea has set out to expand its business overseas. PABLO AIR initiated its footprint for the global market, admitted to MaGIC GAP Cohort 05 program.

The MaGIC program navigated how it might look like for PABLO AIR’s Malaysia market entrance and global expansion. Especially when PABLO AIR attracted pre-series B funding, it provided specific ASEAN market expansion initiated by the Malaysian market.

In August 2021, an MOU was signed with local companies including logistics company, unmanned delivery box developer, and Arizona Aerospace Association in Arizona, USA. Moreover, a drone station developer, EVA, will collaborate for R&D development to demonstrate a project in New York, solidifying its presence in the states.

In addition, it took the lead in leading the future industry by winning second place in the operation category at the AUVSI XCELLENCE Awards in the states with its own developed real-time control system for smart mobility called “PAMNet”.

PABLO AIR named after Pablo Picasso who brought innovation in the art world intends to present a new direction and development to the drone industry as if we draw a picture on a blank sheet of paper. Starting with swarm flight, it aims to expand beyond drone delivery to a UTM business that is responsible for the safety of the future aviation industry.

In addition, as a platform solution provider that controls smart mobility in land, sea, and air, it will lead the development of the smart mobility industry.
