Embraer’s Eve Urban Air Mobility Solutions subsidiary is negotiating a possible merger with Zanite Acquisition Corp, a special purpose acquisition company that started trading on the Nasdaq market in November, raising an initial $230 million. Late on June 10, in a statement from Antonio Carlos Garcia, the Brazilian aerospace group’s executive vice president of finance and investor relations, Embraer responded to a Bloomberg report earlier in the day that Eve and Zanite are preparing to announce a $2 billion merger.
