FIXAR is a leading full-stack developer of autonomous UAVs with best-in-class economic efficiency. Its patented Fixed Angle Rotors technology produces the most durable VTOL drones for various industries, delivering essential data and life-saving products. The company, founded in 2018, is headquartered in Riga, Latvia. It operates in 25+ countries, serving over 40 customers through distribution partners. The diversity of use cases includes mapping, surveillance, orthomosaic, asset inspection, and delivery. In 2022, FIXAR won a Bronze Edison Award in Aerospace and Robotics for its flagship FIXAR 007 VTOL drone. The secret to FIXARs success is scalability – thats how the flight distance was extended from 40 km (25 mi) to 300 km (186 mi), and payload capacity was increased from 1.2 (2.6 lb) kg to 10 kg (22 lb). FIXAR solutions cut the cost of missions by 60% vs copters and by 20% vs planes and fixed-wings. The FIXAR team has 131 years of industry experience and 10,226 hours of piloting UAVs and RC models and includes members of Latvias national drone team and European aeromodelling champions.

We travel the world investing in resilient teams bold enough to #GoGlobal. For too long self-motivated entrepreneurs have navigated the minefield of challenges to launching a global company with very little support. The last thing you should bet on in this situation is an unproven team that you don’t trust. GSD Venture Studios travels to every corner of the globe inviting resilient teams to establish partnerships that ensure organizations grow the right way, without games or gimmicks. Unlike traditional investors, we take senior operational (often co-founder) roles in these companies, capitalizing on our trusted reputation, experiences and network to drive explosive growth.
