Commenting on his appointment, Marc Holme, CTO, Evolito said:
“I’m excited to join Evolito to continue the progression towards more sustainable aviation through electrification. The advanced electric motor technology that originated for the automotive market is being adapted and improved by Evolito to enable aerospace applications where weight, efficiency and safety are critical. Combined with its leading motor control electronics and battery technologies, Evolito is well positioned to reach scalable and sustainable electric aviation.”
The new C-suite hire follows a phenomenal year for the company, having received Design Organisation Approval (DOA) from the UK Civil Aviation Authority for electric propulsion system products in December 2023. Evolito is already working with a number of OEM partners, developing motors and propulsion systems for a variety of eVTOL, Urban Air Mobility and fixed-wing applications, and expects a series of customer test flights later this year.
Dr. Chris Harris, Evolito CEO and co-founder said:
“The whole company is delighted to welcome Marc to the growing Evolito family. I’m extremely proud of what we have created here at Evolito, and our success is a reflection of our hugely talented and dedicated team, driven by a common passion for sustainable mobility.

Experian Expands Agent Trust Partner Ecosystem with Akamai to Advance Trusted AI Driven Commerce15.5.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
Collaboration strengthens secure, scalable agentic commerce and supports emerging Know Your Agent standards Experian today announced that Akamai Technologies has joined its growing partner ecosystem, designed to further advance secure, trusted AI driven commerce through the Experian Agent Trust™ framework, alongside partner Skyfire supporting emerging payment innovation. As AI agents begin to search, decide, and transact autonomously, they introduce a fundamental challenge for businesses: how to trust an action when it is no longer directly initiated by a human. Without a verified connection between humans and AI agents, autonomous commerce introduces new risks in fraud, misrepresentation, and unauthorized transactions. Experian Agent Trust is designed to address this challenge by establishing identity, accountability, and trust in agent driven interactions. “Trust, security, and performance must scale alongside the growing role of AI agents in digital commerce,” said Kathleen Peters,
