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.
