Wright Electric Eyes New Headquarters in Saratoga County

MALTA — Wright Electric, a startup company poised to make a potent impact on the future of air travel, has decided to relocate their headquarters to the Saratoga Technology + Energy Park (STEP) in Malta.

Some of the routes they plan to make emission-less by 2026 are city pairs like London - Paris, New York – Boston and San Francisco – Los Angeles.
