GoFly Prize

GoFly is a multi-million dollar competition pushing the boundaries of innovation, engineering, and transportation to Make People Fly. We’re calling on the world’s greatest thinkers, designers, engineers, and inventors to create a personal flyer for anyone, anywhere. Today we look to the sky and say, “That plane is flying.” We challenge innovators around the world to create a device that makes us look to the sky and say, “That person is flying.” GoFly welcomes revolutionary design, and our Technical Rules provide room for invention. The personal flyer must be safe, quiet, ultra-compact, and near-VTOL—capable of carrying a single person for a distance of 20 miles without refueling or recharging. The invention should be user-friendly and, of course, provide the thrill of flight. Outside of these requirements, the function and design are up to innovator teams. Over the next two years, individuals and teams from around the globe will compete for $2 million in prizes, accessing global experts to bring their ideas to life. Together, we will make people fly.
