Groen Brothers Selected As One Of Utah's Top High-Tech Companies

Utah Business Magazine List Also Includes ATK Launch Systems

Groen Brothers Aviation, Inc. -- based in Salt Lake City, UT -- recently announced Utah Business Magazine has selected the gyroplane development company for inclusion in their 2007 High Tech 20 list.

"Utah has much to be proud of regarding the quality and magnitude of its high technology industry," said GBA Chairman, President & CEO David Groen. "We are honored to be included in such a prestigious group."

The selection places GBA in some high-flying company. Others chosen for the High Tech 20 list were: ATK Launch Systems Group, rocket motor manufacturers; GoEngineer, design software leader; and WorldHeart Corporation, manufacturer of the life-prolonging Levacor Ventricular Assist Device (VAD).

Groen Brothers Aviation was also recently featured on the front page of the Money section of the Salt Lake Tribune. In a two page article titled "Looking to go Vertical," the Tribune focused on GBA’s contract with the US Department of Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) to design and build a combat search and rescue aircraft.

GBA reports Phase I of that project is nearing completion. The GBA-led team includes aircraft manufacturer Adam Aircraft, turbine engine manufacturer Williams International (both with production facilities in Utah) and the Georgia Institute of Technology.

Groen Brothers Aviation, Inc. has been developing gyroplane technology since 1986. Powered by a Rolls-Royce gas turbine engine, GBA developed the world's first commercially viable modern gyroplane -- the first "autogiro" to utilize a jet engine -- the Hawk 4 Gyroplane.
