Honeywell Schedules Special “Invite-Only” Air Mobility Summit

The UAM indus­try con­tin­ues to thrive, espe­cial­ly when a lead­ing indus­try play­er, Hon­ey­well, organ­is­es a spe­cial “invite-only” Air Mobil­i­ty Sum­mit. Hon­ey­well is host­ing this one-day event in Wash­ing­ton D.C. on Sep­tem­ber 21st. The com­pa­ny says “It aims to help speed the evo­lu­tion of aer­i­al trans­porta­tion in a safe, sus­tain­able and afford­able way.” Impor­tant pol­i­cy­mak­ers, reg­u­la­tors and tech­nol­o­gy lead­ers have been cor­dial­ly invit­ed to attend.

Speak­ers at the Sum­mit will include mem­bers of Con­gress, FAA offi­cials and exec­u­tive lead­ers from key Advanced Air Mobil­i­ty (AAM) com­pa­nies. With this spe­cial gath­er­ing of peo­ple, Hon­ey­well aims to align busi­ness inter­ests with those of reg­u­la­to­ry bod­ies includ­ing state and local gov­ern­ments.

Fea­tured pan­els and keynote events at the Sum­mit will focus on Urban Air Mobil­i­ty, Unmanned Aer­i­al Sys­tems, new kinds of Region­al Air Mobil­i­ty and the reg­u­la­to­ry gaps remain­ing to make these tech­nolo­gies an every­day real­i­ty. In par­tic­u­lar, a major­i­ty of events will focus on how these tech­nolo­gies can main­tain U.S com­pet­i­tive­ness on a glob­al scale, as well as the eco­nom­ic and soci­etal ben­e­fits they can bring.

A Hon­ey­well state­ment from its web­site says, “From all-elec­tric air taxis to uncrewed car­go deliv­ery drones, togeth­er, we’re help­ing move trans­porta­tion from the road to the air with elec­tri­cal­ly pow­ered ver­ti­cal take-off and land­ing air­craft for sus­tain­able, high-speed air mobil­i­ty.”

The com­pa­ny is well-placed to host this con­fer­ence, as it has made invest­ments and part­ner­ships with­in the AAM indus­try since its incep­tion. The com­pa­ny has formed tech­nol­o­gy part­ner­ships with notable eVTOL devel­op­ers like Lil­i­um, Pip­istrel, Volo­copter and Ver­ti­cal Aero­space to pro­vide flight con­trols, propul­sion tech­nolo­gies and more.
