Spring is officially here, but we still aren’t clear from the stormy weather in certain areas around the United States. The weather plays a significant role in the successful deliveries of time-critical shipments. It helps to have stable conditions that are easy to adapt to in order to ensure a smooth shipping process. While there is no way to prevent unforeseen weather conditions from taking place, there are ways to continue transporting shipments experiencing delays. Many courier companies close down their operations and facilities in the event of a storm, however Airspace works relentlessly to assist those who are unable to send and receive their time-sensitive packages such as organs for transplant, medical specimens, and COVID-19 tests and vaccines.

Airspace utilizes a technology-driven platform – backed by machine learning and AI – to deliver time-critical shipments including organs for transplant, medical specimens, airplane parts, and more. We recently announced that Airspace was granted a U.S. patent for our logistics management platform technology, making us the first and only company in the industry to achieve such a significant milestone. This patent specifically covers the system, method, and computer programming of the logistical and graphical presentation of the most optimal route for the transportation of precious packages from start to finish.

BIG NEWS! We're so excited to announce that we have been named by Forbes as one of America's Best Startup Employers of 2021! Out of 500 companies, Forbes and Statista ranked Airspace 176! See the full list, here.

As a technology-enabled logistics company that specializes in same-day time-critical shipments including organs for transplant, aircraft parts, and COVID-19 tests and vaccines, Airspace is proud to support our customers’ critical needs. Recently, our Co-Founder and CEO, Nick Bulcao, spoke with Telstra Ventures about what it takes to build a successful company from the ground-up. Bulcao covered topics ranging from Airspace’s patented technology and passionate team to funding efforts and how Airspace’s investors are supporting the company’s continued expansion. Here, we’ll cover Airspace’s growth and our recent Series C funding, plus access to the full podcast below!

At Airspace, we know that your time-critical shipments need to arrive on-time and handled with precision. Historically, critical shipments have been mismanaged by the lack of transparency and speed within the industry and customers have come to accept this as the “industry standard.” All too often, delays arise which cause re-routed and late packages resulting in decreased viability of an organ for transplant or medical specimen, canceled flights due to missing aircraft parts, or the loss of a life. To ensure a successful delivery, it’s crucial to have ultimate visibility, unmatched speed, and a dedicated team behind the process.

We’re pleased to share that we have launched a new white paper, How to Optimize Critical Medical Deliveries to Save More Lives, which details the overwhelming statistics and various scenarios that can occur when time-critical deliveries are mismanaged. With Organ Procurement Organizations (OPO) in mind, Airspace created this white paper to show the importance of time-critical shipping and the devastating consequences of failed deliveries.
