Digital Aero Technologies, a technology-driven aviation companies’ holding, established by a global aviation services group Avia Solutions Group, has announced that two more companies have joined the digital family – Locatory.com and Enginestands.com.
The recently established holding Digital Aero Technologies plans to cover various tech areas and fields – from news and recruitment to smart tools and online platforms. The holding has been actively looking to gather some of the industry-leading aviation technology companies under one roof. “I trust that uniting forward-thinking active businesses will encourage innovation and inter-company projects,” says Julius Norkunas, Digital Aero Technologies CEO.

Our team is closely working with companies we take under our wing and invest to, to ensure that they have the best shot at making the history,” shares Julius Norkunas.
The newest additions to the Digital Aero Technologies holding that will be receiving investment are Locatory.com and Enginestands.com. DAT is investing 1 million euros into the development of the companies.
