Eve Air Mobility has signed Letters of Intent (LOI) with two companies on the eve of the Farnborough Airshow, one with Moov for up to 30 electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, and the other with aviation finance company Shearwater Global Capital or up to 16 air taxis.
Eve and Moov, which is an Switzerland-incorporated aviation company based in Lugano, will explore use cases including sightseeing and shuttle services between airports, ports and resorts, as well as regional mobility across São Vicente, Santo Antão, Sal, Praia and Boa Vista. The companies have also identified potential in medical transport services and infrastructure inspections.
"This LOI with Moov reflects Eve's continued commitment to working with customers and partners that are building practical, high-value advanced air mobility use cases," said Johann Bordais, CEO of Eve. "Cabo Verde offers a compelling combination of tourism demand growth, geographic diversity and infrastructure investment momentum, making it an exciting market to explore how eVTOLs can complement existing transportation networks and develop new segments."
"We believe Cabo Verde is uniquely positioned to benefit from innovative mobility solutions that enhance the visitor experience while supporting long-term connectivity and economic development," said Captain Alvaro N. de Oliveira, Founder and CEO of Moov. "By working with Eve, we are exploring how eVTOL aircraft could complement our broader vision for aviation in the mid-Atlantic and open new possibilities for premium, efficient and sustainable transportation."
Shearwater Eyes Emerging Market
Eve's LOI with Shearwater for up to 16 eVTOL aircraft. he agreement supports Shearwater’s strategy to broaden its aviation finance platform to include emerging asset classes such as advanced air mobility (AAM). Shearwater joined Bay Point in April 2026 as a lessor to invest in transformative aviation technologies, expand its business aviation portfolio, and align with the future of sustainable transportation.
“We believe advanced air mobility will play an important role in shaping the future of transportation, and we look forward to supporting Shearwater as it offers leasing solutions to the market,” said Johann Bordais, CEO of Eve Air Mobility.
“This order reflects our confidence in Eve’s technology, leadership team, and vision for advanced air mobility,” said Chris Miller, managing director – Aviation, Shearwater Global Capital, a Bay Point company. “We believe advanced air mobility will become a global market, and Shearwater intends to play a leading role in supporting that growth through innovative leasing solutions."
