TORONTO, Oct. 15, 2020 /CNW/ - Drone Delivery Canada Corp. (TSXV: FLT)  (OTC: TAKOF) (Frankfurt: A2AMGZ or ABB.F) (the "Company" or "DDC") is pleased to announce that it has been invited to participate in a research endeavour with the University of Toronto Institute of Aerospace Studies ("UTIAS") and Ford Motor Company ("Ford").

Under the terms of the agreement, the parties shall cooperate and work jointly towards testing an automated drone as it tracks and lands on a moving ground vehicle within the flight arena.

"As a clear leader in the drone logistics industry globally, we are pleased to be working with world-class organizations such as UTIAS and Ford to advance our technology and applications for drone delivery. We continue to move the industry forward and these advances can create further commercial use cases for drone delivery. We have a proud history of R&D which has resulted in unique and patented intellectual property and the successful commercialization of our advanced logistics solution," said Michael Zahra, President & CEO of DDC.
