Middle East: AA-ME Dubai, IAM Madrid by Expodronica “Collaborate on AAM Dubai Living Lab”

AA-ME (AISIN ASIA Mid­dle East Branch), Dubai (a lead­ing inno­v­a­tive tech­nol­o­gy group) and IAM Madrid by Expo­dron­i­ca (organ­is­er of the major annu­al avi­a­tion event), announced recent­ly a strate­gic part­ner­ship aimed at devel­op­ing Advanced Air Mobil­i­ty (AAM) via a “Liv­ing Lab” in Dubai, reports a press release.

“This Alliance not only sig­ni­fies a mile­stone in indus­try col­lab­o­ra­tion but also intro­duces a ground­break­ing ini­tia­tive, the estab­lish­ment of a Liv­ing Lab under the Expo­dron­i­ca umbrel­la,” explains the release.

It goes on, “The Lab pro­vides par­tic­i­pat­ing com­pa­nies with a unique plat­form to not only ben­e­fit as par­tic­i­pants of the AA-ME Dubai and IAM Madrid Events (e.g as exhibitors and spon­sors), but also become part of a pio­neer­ing ini­tia­tive ded­i­cat­ed to pro­mote and tri­al new civil­ian and defence tech­nolo­gies with com­mer­cial appeal.”

The release also says the Lab is to serve as an ecosys­tem to demon­strate and val­i­date the tech­ni­cal and eco­nom­ic via­bil­i­ty of AAM, while con­duct­ing cost-effec­tive analy­ses and assess its envi­ron­men­tal impact after an assort­ment of tri­als. These are to focus on three pri­ma­ry areas:-

: Con­struc­tion — Address­ing mate­r­i­al logis­tics, work­ers mobil­i­ty and secu­ri­ty of con­struc­tion sites — the Liv­ing Lab will test var­i­ous tech­no­log­i­cal solu­tions to improve effi­cien­cy and sus­tain­abil­i­ty in man­age­ment and mobil­i­ty.

: Man­u­fac­tur­ing of new air­craft and relat­ed infra­struc­ture — Inno­v­a­tive solu­tions such as eVTOL and its relat­ed infra­struc­ture devel­op­ment, involv­ing all rel­e­vant areas as ener­gy, mete­o­ro­log­i­cal ser­vices, telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions etc..

: More­over, this ini­tia­tive aims to dri­ve the indus­try for­ward, serv­ing as a bench­mark for a new mobil­i­ty ecosys­tem glob­al­ly devel­oped under the Expo­dron­i­ca umbrel­la.

The release con­cludes, “The Project iden­ti­fies Dubai and Spain as key loca­tions, posi­tion­ing them as sand­box­es for mobil­i­ty and fos­ter­ing civil/military col­lab­o­ra­tion and cross sec­tor coop­er­a­tion. It presents a unique oppor­tu­ni­ty for future mobil­i­ty to test and val­i­date inno­v­a­tive, effi­cient and sus­tain­able solu­tions, while gen­er­at­ing knowl­edge and tech­nolo­gies applic­a­ble to oth­er indus­try sec­tors.”

The next Expo­dron­i­ca Avi­a­tion event is being held on Sep­tem­ber 24th-25th at Madrid, IFEMA and Sep­tem­ber 26th at Cua­tro Vien­tos Air­port.
