This panel will address crucial debates from a panel of global experts, with an opportunity for interactive Q&A.  

 

  • Is anyone close to obtaining a commercial sustainable model? What is required to scale?
  • Vertiport operations & battery charging infrastructure/solutions
  • Airports globally are vast and need substantial evidence to invest into vertiport concepts, risk free – How close are we to securing airport ‘buy in’ across global regions? 
  • Air traffic management infrastructure
  • Air traffic control workload and operational efficiency
  • The importance of the Air Navigation Service Provider and eVTOL operations
