Final countdown to eVTOL Insights’ Singapore Conference — one week left to buy your tickets!
There’s one week to go until eVTOL Insights heads to Singapore for its Asia-Pacific Conference and tickets remaining on sale until the morning of Tuesday, July 4th.
The two-day speaker programme features an exhaustive list of companies, which will be showcasing their latest projects and sharing insights on a wide range of industry topics. Recent additions to next week’s conference includes EHang, AutoFlight, ST Engineering, Mott MacDonald, Japan’s Ministry of Ecomomy, Trade and Industry (METI), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and NEO Aeronautics.
The event will begin on Monday, July 3rd with a pre-event drinks reception at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel.
Day one of the speaker programme opens at 9am on Tuesday, July 4th, with a keynote presentation from Dr. James Wang from Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University. He will be talking about the development of eVTOL technology, from 2010 to the present day.
A series of keynote presentations, fireside chats and panel discussions will then take place throughout the day, before finishing at about 2.30pm. We’re pleased to say that once day one has finished, attendees will then be transported to the Maritime Drone Estate (MDE), where they will witness a live demonstration from the Skyports Drone Services team. A bus will then take the delegation party back to Marina Bay Sands, where a networking reception will take place.
On Wednesday, July 5th, day two will kick off at 9am with a keynote presentation from Volocopter’s Willy Lee, who will talk about the company’s UAM roadmap for Singapore. The programme will finish at about 2.30pm, with attendees then split into two parties and transported to the Institute of Technical Education (ITE), where they will be able to have a public tour of Volocopter’s VoloCity aircraft. This model recently completed test flights at last week’s Paris Air Show.
Once the two public tours are over, attendees will be transported back to the Marina Bay Sands Hotel for a final networking reception to close the event.
Tickets remain on sale for $999 and can be purchased via our Eventbrite page.
