PLANA Investor Event - The Future of Mobility
The Future of Mobility.
Redefining Movement by Solving the ~$2T “Missing Middle”.
Host
Hosted by Orrick and Growth Factory Ventures
Description
Join us for an informal, investor focused, in person gathering exploring the future of urban and regional mobility with the PLANA team.
PLANA is addressing what we call the “Missing Middle” of mobility. Sub 500 mile trips that are increasingly broken. Too slow, congested, and unreliable on the ground, yet inefficient and costly by air. We believe this structural gap supports the creation of an entirely new urban and regional mobility category, one PLANA is purpose built to define and lead.
PLANA is building a next generation regional mobility platform grounded in execution. Certification strategy, infrastructure independence, unit economics, and scalable deployment sit at the core of the approach. The focus is on closing the gap in today’s mobility stack where cars, trucks, roads, and commercial aircraft fail to support efficient regional movement.
Founder Braden Kim and the PLANA team will share our latest progress, including key milestones across our hybrid-electric VTOL program, FAA certification pathway, and early market traction. We will also outline why we believe PLANA is uniquely positioned to define and lead a new category in regional mobility.
Attendees are welcome starting at 4:00 PM. The company presentation will begin at 4:45 PM, followed by a social hour with the founding team and advisors. This is an opportunity to spend time with the people building the platform, exchange perspectives, and explore how the near term future of mobility can look and feel meaningfully different as movement becomes more accessible and democratized.
