  • REVA – based in the United States
  • FAI – based in Germany
  • ER24 – based in South Africa
  • Tylor Air Ambulance – based in Austria

It’s worth nothing here that REVA had been nominated in 2012 and again in 2014. Last year, REVA lost the coveted award to AMREF Flying Doctors. However, the air ambulance company seems to be the forerunner this year around.
