AERALIS SUBMITS CONTRIBUTION TO INVEST 2035

2 December 2024

AERALIS last week submitted its response to the UK Government’s Invest 2035 consultation with UK industry.

Invest 2035 ‘the new modern industrial strategy’, is billed by the UK government as central to its “credible, 10-year plan to deliver the certainty and stability businesses need to invest in the high growth sectors that will drive our growth mission.”

Below is an excerpt from the executive summary of AERALIS’s submission:


“AERALIS is pleased to contribute to the Invest 2035 strategy with our proposals that address the UK’s industrial growth needs and position as a global leader in aviation innovation. Our digitally designed modular light jet aircraft system exemplifies the kind of entrepreneurial programme that is capable of attracting significant inward investment from both sovereign wealth and private sector investors, securing the future of UK aerospace whilst reducing the burden of public funding  from HM Treasury.

“Our approach transforms traditional procurement models by developing a British-designed, British-built jet system that is export-ready and economically sustainable. This innovative funding model leverages third-party financing and international partnerships to deliver significant long-term savings for the UK while reducing reliance on overseas capabilities. With a fully modular airframe, integrated with the RAF’s PYRAMID open systems avionics, and an integrated digital enterprise, our platform remains adaptable, scalable, and affordable throughout its lifecycle, supporting UK sovereignty, and bolstering the UK’s industrial and defence capabilities.

“AERALIS’s commitment to using digital enterprise invites industrial partners across the UK to participate in and contribute towards this high added-value aircraft programme. This alignment with the Invest 2035 goals supports UK engineering excellence, drives productivity, and strengthens the aerospace supply chain—showcasing Britain as a prime investment destination in advanced manufacturing and technology.”

We applaud the UK Government’s engagement with industry in the development of the Invest 2035 strategy and thank them for the opportunity for AERALIS to be involved.
