About SKYY Network
SKYY Network integrates and operates drone services for organisations moving goods between sites. It selects aircraft, prepares operating procedures and approvals, trains local staff and manages flights, combining aviation services with its own risk-assessment and operations software. SkyGuardian 360 models air risk, while SkyyOS shares live mission and traffic information with other airspace users.
Its Romanian medical-logistics work with MedLife uses third-party aircraft to transfer biological samples between collection points and laboratories. The service combines autonomous flight with trained ground staff loading and unloading the aircraft. In Bali, SKYY is testing a different workflow with Nuanu, Café del Mar and Grab: drones cover an aerial portion of food delivery while people retain merchant and road-delivery roles. That three-month initiative is a controlled pilot. SKYY’s role is aircraft integration and operation, supported by software and regulatory expertise.

Events
- 2026-10-05 - Deployment - SKYY Network starts Bali drone-delivery pilot with Grab and Nuanu
A2Z Drone Delivery supplies the aircraft; SKYY manages aviation technology, regulatory work and flight operations. Customers order through Grab, trained staff operate the drones and Grab driver-partners support final-mile delivery. Flights use a selected route in controlled airspace near Ngurah Rai airport, with live position and traffic information shared through SkyyOS.

Three Swoop Aero Kite aircraft connect collection points in Aleșd, Beiuș, Marghita and Salonta with laboratories in Oradea and Arad. Flights were already carrying real patient samples after nearly three months of preparation and testing. Local medical teams were trained for aircraft handling, while the project obtained aviation, public-health and defence approvals.
