AAM Powered by Innovation

As AAM systems and services take shape across the world, stakeholders take-up important challenges in designing and prototyping innovative vehicles, and deploying widescale, safe and sustainable operations. It requires key innovative enablers to build, operate and maintain the different parts of the AAM system, such as automation and communication, that span over the entire ecosystem, from manufacturers, operators, data providers, regulators and air space managers. The application of advanced technologies for AAM, such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, electric or alternative propulsion systems, and any other technical disruptions also imply important changes and adaptations for organizations. This panel will explore the various questions, lessons learned, and opportunities brought by AAM in relation to technologies, processes, procedures, and organizations.
