AIRO-Logo-Color-Pos-1-e1734565603262 (1)
AIRO Group Holdings, Inc. was formed through the merger of multiple aerospace and defense companies, including Albuquerque-based Aspen Avionics. The combined company generated significant economic value in New Mexico from high-wage jobs, tax revenue and capital investments.
The Company’s Initial Public Offering (IPO) in June, 2025, realized a successful exit for investors. NM VC Sun Mountain Capital played a key role in supporting Aspen’s growth and facilitating AIRO’s formation, all of which strengthened NM’s tech economy.
This Case Study was created by NM Angels to highlight exits and startup company investment returns for New Mexicans. Thanks to Sun Mountain Capital for contributing.
