Joby Aviation today became the first U.S.-based eVTOL developer to go public with a flotation on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), trading under the symbol JOBY. This follows an extraordinary general meeting days ago that approved the California-based startup’s merger with special purpose acquisition company Reinvent Technology Partners. According to Joby, the transaction values the business at $4.5 billion.
