AVPL enters into MoU with Ahamani Advanced Inc for certification Drone Pilots

New Delhi, Oct 9 (UNI) A leading AgriTech and Drone Technology firm AVPL International has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Taiwan-based Ahamani Advanced Inc to facilitate the dual certification of Indian drone pilots, allowing them to earn credentials from both the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in India and the Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) in Taiwan.
This collaboration was unveiled at the 2024 India-Taiwan Industrial Collaboration Summit, organized by industry chamber FICCI.
This initiative is expected to broaden career opportunities for Indian pilots in international markets, particularly in sectors such as agriculture, logistics, and urban management. With certifications recognized in countries that adhere to CAA standards, Indian drone pilots will be better positioned to compete for jobs globally, AVPL International said in a release.
Preet Sandhu, Founder & MD of AVPL International, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership saying “This MoU marks a pivotal moment for Indian drone pilots. By equipping our youth with essential skills and dual certification, we are not only paving the way for their success in the global market but also empowering them to contribute meaningfully to the international drone industry. This initiative reflects our commitment to nurturing talent and innovation, ultimately benefiting our nation and our partners.”
In addition to certification, the MoU also outlines plans for educational collaboration with Taiwanese universities to develop specialized courses in drone technology. These training programs aim to prepare Indian pilots with the skills required to thrive in a rapidly changing industry.
Chi TC Kung, representing Ahamani Advanced Inc., highlighted the significance of this partnership and said “Our collaboration with AVPL International showcases our mutual commitment to advancing drone technology and developing skilled professionals. Through this dual certification program, we are creating new career pathways for Indian pilots and enhancing Taiwan's status as a hub for technological innovation.
This partnership is a strategic step towards mutual growth in the drone sector for both nations.”
This collaboration is poised to open international career pathways for Indian youth and reinforce India's standing in the global drone market. It also aligns with Ahamani Advanced Inc.’s goal of cultivating global partnerships to expand its technological reach.
The MoU is set to span five years, with the possibility of renewal based on the success of the initiative. The announcement at the India-Taiwan Industrial Collaboration Summit underscores India's commitment to advancing drone technology and building a skilled workforce capable of meeting global demands, the company release said.
