Success stories from Vista
Since our exciting win at the last Dubai Airshow, Esper has made significant strides in our mission to make high-resolution hyperspectral data more accessible and actionable. The journey since VISTA has been transformational for us. Since VISTA, we've raised US$4 million in funding, allowing us to accelerate product development and expand our global footprint.
Being part of the VISTA community has opened doors for Esper, and we're excited to return to Dubai Airshow to showcase how far we've come - and where we're headed next.
