For Investors
Intercontinental transport of patients requiring intensive care is inefficient, expensive, and limited to private air ambulances. Meet The Guardian – an innovative, modular Patient Transport Compartment that equips commercial aircraft with an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for a single flight, without disrupting airline operations.
The Guardian PTC will disrupt the market for long-haul transportation of intensive- and medium-care patients.
Flexible ICU installed 'on demand'
Installed at the airline hub , de-installed after use; done in 2 hours x 2 fte.
Proprietary (patent-pending) design.
Replacing (extremely) expensive private air ambulances.
Niche but high value market
High margin per flight driven by inefficiency of private air ambulances.
TAM: 2.3B = intercontinental ICU transports, but lower pricing will increase addressable patient transports.
Proprietary design & certification entry barriers.
Using reliable and certified technology
Core 'bed unit' procured from Lufthansa Technik, existing certification as base.
Compartment will be certified with EASA (Europe) and FAA (USA), global coverage.
