About VÆRIDION

Ranked LinkedIn Top Startup 2025 | Electric Regional Aviation

VÆRIDION is transforming regional air travel with the Microliner, a 100% electric aircraft designed for clean and affordable mobility on regional and underserved routes. Headquartered in Munich, with a subsidiary in Delft, we are developing an eCTOL aircraft that carries up to 9 passengers over 400 km under IFR conditions, meeting the operational and sustainability goals of regional airlines. The clean-sheet design features a glider-inspired wing with integrated modular batteries and a multi-engine, single-propeller propulsion system. The result? The most energy-efficient aircraft in its class. No science fiction, just real, achievable, zero-emission travel before 2030.
