Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 13, 2024, Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), announced that its subsidiary, Global Autonomous Corporation ("Global Autonomous") has successfully completed its Validation Test Campaign ("VTC") certified by the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority ("DCAA") in Dubai, United Arab Emirates ("UAE").

During the VTC, Global Autonomous’s G1-MKII Aircraft (the "MKII"), developed and manufactured by another subsidiary of the Company, Vayu Aerospace Corporation ("Vayu"), showcased exceptional safety and redundancy features while operating in the congested airspace of Dubai. The Global Autonomous team completed a series of four tests, two of which were focused on rotorcopter capabilities of the MKII with the other two tests focused on fixed-wing Visual Line of Sight ("VLOS") and Beyond Visual Line of Sight ("BVLOS") flight capabilities of the MKII. This series of meticulously planned test activities were also aligned with standards promulgated by the European Aviation Safety Agency ("EASA") and Joint Authorities for Rulemaking on Unmanned Systems ("JARUS"), emphasizing Global Autonomous's commitment to safety and security in unmanned aviation.

With this first phase of testing completed, the Global Autonomous team is planning a return trip to Dubai, UAE tentatively scheduled towards the end of the first quarter or early second quarter of 2024 to begin phase two of testing. Management anticipates that this next round of testing within the Dubai Silicon Oasis will include more comprehensive documentation related to the operational capabilities of the MKII, as well as testing added hardware / software designed to meet required risk mitigation standards including such items as parachutes and detection and avoidance systems, per the direction of the DCAA.

The Company's management believes that the success of these operational tests in Dubai paves the way for Global Autonomous to expand its services, offering innovative solutions in drone delivery and operations.
