Radical Raises $4.5M in Seed Funding

-

Radical, a Seattle, WA-based high-altitude solar-powered aircraft maker, raised $4.5m in Seed funding.

The round was led by Scout Ventures with participation from Inflection Mercury Fund and Y Combinator.

The company intends to use the funds to expand the team and scale its technology.

Led by James Thomas, CEO, and Cyriel Notteboom, CTO, Radical makes high altitude solar-powered aircraft engineered to operate autonomously in the stratosphere, flying over targeted areas for months without the need to land. This capability allows the company to provide continuous cell service, collect high-resolution imagery, and carry weather and climate sensors, all while maintaining zero emissions. This has the potential to transform telecommunications, environmental monitoring, and many other fields.
