Drone startup Ehang ropes in collection of top talent to bolster boardroom

Ehang Technology Co Ltd, a drone startup established a year ago in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong province, has included four former high-profile managers from the information technology and Internet industries in its executive management team, according to the company.

The recent move, announced by the company on its website early this week, would help transfer the company from a startup to a big player amid the burgeoning drone industry, according to Xiong Yifang, co-founder of Ehang.

"They are very experienced, either in startup business management or capital raising sector. Their joining will certainly help boost Ehang's management and expand our business," said Xiong.
