RNS Number : 2001U Aurrigo International PLC 22 November 2023
22 November 2023
Aurrigo International plc
Project Agreement with IAG at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky
International Airport (CVG)
Aurrigo International plc (AIM: AURR, the "Company" or "Aurrigo"), a leading
international provider of transport technology solutions, has signed a Project
Agreement ('the Agreement') with International Airlines Group, S.A. ("IAG"),
for the deployment and demonstration of Aurrigo's autonomous aviation
solutions at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG).
The Partnership is expected to follow a similar phasing to Aurrigo's agreement
with IAG in the UK with an evaluation and simulation phase to commence in
November 2023 running for three months, followed by a demonstration phase and
an initial deployment.
It is the Board's expectation that this will then lead to the likely
deployment of a small fleet during H1 2025 at CVG. As with Aurrigo's UK
partnership with IAG, it will involve the Auto-DollyTug(®) baggage vehicle
and Aurrigo's Auto-Sim(®) aviation operations simulation software.
The deployment of Aurrigo's vehicles under the Agreement will be undertaken at
CVG and valued at $0.29 million.
David Keene, CEO of Aurrigo, said:
"This partnership is an important milestone for us as it will be our first
aviation operation in the US - a key target market. We're pleased to be
partnering with IAG beyond the UK and to be building a presence at a key
international airport."
