In June, three more RPTOs in Gurugram, Chikballapur, and Samastipur will begin operations. The remaining two RPTOs in Rajahmundry and Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, are expected to be operational by July. The company aims to train 360 drone pilots per location annually through these RPTOs, bringing the total number of pilots trained to date to over 400.
Anoop Upadhyay, Co-founder, and Director of IoTechWorld, emphasized that the establishment of these new RPTOs will play a crucial role in training a larger number of pilots who can operate drones safely and efficiently. This expansion will not only meet the growing demand for skilled drone pilots but also create numerous job opportunities in the drone industry.
IoTechWorld in fiscal year
IoTechWorld, which already also has a presence in 12 states across India, has reported selling over 500 drones in the fiscal year 2022-23. The company has set an ambitious target of selling at least 3,000 drones this year, reflecting its confidence in the increasing adoption of drones in various sectors.
