Tokyo, Japan - [June 29th 2025] - Kobayashi Group Japan today announced that its CEO, Kingsley Kobayashi, is collaborating with the Concorde team to help make the return of supersonic passenger travel a global success.
In partnership with Concorde-a name synonymous with aviation excellence-Kingsley Kobayashi will support strategic initiatives to ensure the success of the aircraft's revival and its broader impact on the industry. The project aims to redefine fast, sustainable travel with cutting-edge design, sonic boom suppression, and a commitment to environmental responsibility.
The new Concorde is set to re-enter service by 2026, fifty years after its first historic flight. With next-generation technology, sustainable aviation fuel, and an 80% reduction in emissions, the aircraft promises to deliver a quieter, cleaner, and faster-than-sound travel experience.
Kingsley Kobayashi commented:
"We're thrilled to be working alongside the Concorde team on this historic revival. The new Concorde isn't just about speed-it's about pushing the limits of technology, sustainability, and luxury to deliver a better future for air travel. Kobayashi Group Japan is committed to helping make this project a reality and a lasting success."
The partnership aligns with Concorde's ambitious plans to reimagine supersonic travel for the modern era. Highlights of the new aircraft include a sonic boom suppression system developed over two decades, a redesigned cabin inspired by minimalist Japanese architecture, and blockchain-backed financing through Concorde Coin (CSSC), bringing aviation into the decentralized finance era.
This collaboration also reflects a broader shift in aviation policy and technology following the lifting of the overland supersonic flight ban in June 2025. As regulators worldwide adapt to this new reality, demand for faster and cleaner air travel is expected to reshape the global tourism and business landscape.
By joining forces with Concorde, Kobayashi Group Japan underscores its commitment to bold, future-forward projects that deliver sustainable innovation while honoring the timeless elegance and spirit of human progress.
