Conversation: the highs and lows of pioneering AAM infrastructure
09 Apr 2025

Advanced air mobility (AAM), vertiports and infrastructure
Having spoken and participated at numerous AAM industry events, UAP proposes to bring a more personal touch to PTE by sharing personal highs and lows, from its beginning in 2017 with Airbus as its first client, delivering Air One Coventry with the UK government and Supernal (Hyundai Motor Group), and on to its commercial vertiport model Next-Gen. The focus will shift from eVTOL certification challenges and lack of funding to a more personal account that should make for an engaging discussion with the audience/industry peers.
- Navigating a nascent industry (pros and cons of corporate backing)
- UK’s startups in tech and innovation (challenge when transitioning to commercialization)
- Government support in Europe versus the US and China (the importance of centralized funding and unions)
