Details of the association are sparse; the pair will work together on technology development and research in the country of Japan and overseas [with the head most focused on India], all while advancing carbon equity.

SkyDrive, a member of the Public-Private Conference of Japan for Air Mobility of the future, is already busy making cargo drones and is presently working on a flattened, 2-seater eVTOL. This is planning for dispatching service of air taxi during the World Exposition in the year 2025 in the country of Osaka.
Suzuki is not the only maker of autos with its head in the sky: In the year 2019, Porsche and Boeing cooperated for inspecting and exploring building a flying car for the market that is premium. GM, however, premiered its concept that is best for the upcoming future.
