Yesterday, we visited students at Piedmont G.L.O.B.A.L. Academy in Dallas, TX. In partnership with @Walmart , we made a special delivery to the school and we had the opportunity to speak with the students about the careers in our emerging drone industry. The path forward is up!

Call of Duty Modern Warfare II hits store shelves today and to celebrate the release of this iconic game we've teamed up with @Walmart to create the ultimate gaming loadout! We can't think of a more fitting way to get a game like MWII than a UAV supply drop, can you? #droneup

It was exciting to stop by the @Walmart Neighborhood Market and see @godroneup testing the delivery system. Arkansas is on the cutting edge of new technologies.

DroneUp recently teamed up with @TMobile to make a special delivery at this year’s #RedBullRampage event in Utah. Rampage athletes received ice cold cans of @redbull drinks delivered by drone and powered by T-Mobile 5G network and @elsight's Halo platform. #dronedelivery

We can’t always control when and where disaster will occur, but we can control how we respond. Our goal is to keep first responders safely on the ground, with a second set of eyes in the air. #hurricaneian #teamwork #dronesforgood

We were proud to join Governor Youngkin today as he announced our expansion in Virginia Beach. We will be adding over 600 jobs as well as a testing, training, and R&D center at Richard Bland College. We couldn't be more proud of all our team has accomplished! #droneup

We successfully competed against multiple states for this expansion project and I’m proud of the multi-pronged effort to attract this investment to Virginia. @godroneup represents a new age of technology for VA Beach and Dinwiddie County! governor.virginia.gov/newsro…
