The company seems to have been founded about 2008 and gone out of business in 2016.[2]

The company was a Společnost s ručením omezeným (sro), a Czech private limited company.[1]

Ivanov Aero was formed to develop and produce the Ivanov ZJ-Viera, a single seat ultralight aircraft made from composite materials. Reviewer Marino Boric described the aircraft in a 2015 review, saying, "the dream of ultralighting returns, but with a 21st century feel! Ultralight on the wallet, too, thanks to a combination of simple design and modern all-composite construction...this airplane shows every sign of becoming a landmark design".[1]

Another Czech aircraft manufacturer, InterPlane Aircraft of Zbraslavice, acted as distributor for the ZJ-Viera, marketing it for the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles category, as well as the light-sport aircraft category, before they went out of business in late 2013.[3]

Ivanov Aero also provided services for design studies and engineering, documentation, structural testing, prototyping, aircraft maintenance and repairs and production of aircraft and aircraft parts.[4]
