Certification Announced at Airspace World in Lisbon, Achieving a Major Milestone for European U-space Implementation<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Lisbon, Portugal \u2013 May 14, 2025<\/b> \u2014 ANRA Technologies, a leading provider of digital airspace and mission management solutions, is proud to announce it has become the first company to be officially certified by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) as a U-space Service Provider (USSP). The announcement was made today at Airspace World in Lisbon, one of Europe\u2019s premier events focused on the future of UAS traffic and airspace management.<\/span><\/p>\n

This groundbreaking certification is the first of its kind issued by EASA under its new centralized certification framework and represents a significant step forward in enabling harmonised, scalable drone services across Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cANRA\u2019s achievement of becoming the first certified U-space Service Provider demonstrates what is possible through rigorous compliance and technical maturity,\u201d said Florian Guillermet, Executive Director of EASA. \u201cIt sets the benchmark for others and moves us closer to a safe, secure, and interoperable European U-space ecosystem.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Over nearly two years, ANRA Technologies underwent a comprehensive and rigorous evaluation process conducted in partnership with EASA. The process included detailed assessments of safety, cybersecurity, operational readiness, business continuity, U-space service provision, and compliance frameworks.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis certification is a landmark milestone for our company and for the European drone ecosystem,\u201d said Amit Ganjoo,<\/span><\/i> Founder and CEO of ANRA Technologies. \u201cWe have invested significantly in maturing our European operations, and this process has made us not just a stronger technology company, but a stronger aviation organisation.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While technology is a core component, the certification goes far beyond software capabilities. It covers areas such as Safety Support Assessments, cyber resilience, incident management, data protection, information security assurance, software assurance, and service oversight, demonstrating ANRA\u2019s complete readiness to safely deploy U-space services at scale.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve grown tremendously as an organisation during this journey,\u201d said Patricia Garcia Pastor, U-space Certification Manager at ANRA Technologies Spain. \u201cWorking closely with EASA, we\u2019ve built robust internal systems and processes that align with the high bar set for U-space safety and reliability. It\u2019s been a challenging but immensely rewarding experience.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With the certification now in place, ANRA Europe is ready to launch U-space services across multiple European member states. The company is already engaged in discussions with several national regulators and air navigation service providers, and formal announcements are expected soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cANRA\u2019s certification as the first U-space Service Provider under EASA\u2019s new framework reflects a pioneering and highly collaborative effort,\u201d said St\u00e9phane Vaubourg, U-space Project Manager at the EASA. \u201cANRA demonstrated a deep commitment to meeting the rigorous safety, security, and performance standards required of U-space services. This milestone not only validates their readiness but also sets a strong precedent for future USSP applicants across Europe.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This milestone certification of ANRA by EASA represents more than a single company\u2019s achievement \u2014 it is a key enabler for accelerating a harmonised, pan-European approach to U-space deployment. By establishing a repeatable certification model that has been applied and tested during this process, EASA has provided a clear regulatory pathway for other U-space Service Providers, fostering consistency, safety, and interoperability across member states. ANRA\u2019s approval serves as a blueprint for future applicants and helps unlock the full potential of scalable and complex (e.g. BVLOS) drones operations across the European Union; and also as a significant step in fulfilling the European Commission\u2019s Drones Strategy 2.0<\/span><\/p>\n
