Only Two Speaker Slots Left! Agenda for eVTOL Insights’ North America Conference & Awards in Ohio Nears Completion

Sky­Drive, NASA’s Air Traf­fic Man­age­ment and Safe­ty (ATMS) team and CAE are the lat­est com­pa­nies which have con­firmed to attend and speak at eVTOL Insights’ North Amer­i­ca Con­fer­ence & Awards.

There are only five weeks until the event, which will take place from Wednes­day, April 29th to Fri­day, May 1st at the Nation­al Advanced Air Mobil­i­ty Cen­ter of Excel­lence (NAAMCE) near Spring­field, Ohio.

It will fol­low pre­vi­ous eVTOL Insights con­fer­ences in North Amer­i­ca, which include New York (2022), Mon­tre­al (2024) and Palo Alto (2025).

Only two speak­er slots are left; one in a pan­el dis­cus­sions about ‘Cer­ti­fi­ca­tion and Reg­u­la­tion’ and the last one on a pan­el enti­tled ‘Build­ing a AAM Work­force for the 2030s’. If you would like to be con­sid­ered, please email Jason Pritchard, eVTOL Insights’ Exec­u­tive Edi­tor, at jason@evtolinsights.com

Del­e­gates will also have the chance to expe­ri­ence select air­craft sim­u­la­tors, gain­ing hands-on insight into the next gen­er­a­tion of air­craft design, oper­a­tions, and train­ing tools.

Fol­low­ing the facil­i­ty tour, guests are invit­ed to a pre-event drinks recep­tion from 6pm to 8pm ET, pro­vid­ing a relaxed net­work­ing envi­ron­ment ahead of the conference’s main pro­gram­ming.

The main con­fer­ence day will be held on Thurs­day, April 30th at NAAMCE from 9am to 5.45pm ET fea­tur­ing keynotes, pan­els, and keynote pre­sen­ta­tions from indus­try lead­ers, inno­va­tors and pol­i­cy­mak­ers.

After the con­fer­ence fin­ish­es, the 2026 Glob­al AAM Awards will take place and recog­nise more indi­vid­u­als and com­pa­nies work­ing with­in the glob­al Advanced Air Mobil­i­ty mar­ket. This will be from 6.30pm to 7.30pm ET

The event will con­clude on Fri­day, May 1st with a planned tour of Hartzell Propeller’s HQ in Piqua, OH. The com­pa­ny is the glob­al leader in advanced air­craft pro­peller design and man­u­fac­tur­ing tech­nol­o­gy.

The tim­ings haven’t been offi­cial­ly con­firmed, but del­e­gates will like­ly need to be on-site from 9.30am ET, with the tour from 10am to 11.30am ET.

ABOUT NAAMCE

Locat­ed at the Springfield–Beckley Munic­i­pal Air­port, the NAAMCE opened in Sep­tem­ber 2023 and is a pre­mier research and devel­op­ment facil­i­ty ded­i­cat­ed to advanc­ing the field of Advanced Air Mobil­i­ty. Span­ning 55,000 square feet, the cen­ter com­pris­es 30,000 square feet of admin­is­tra­tive, lab­o­ra­to­ry, meet­ing, and col­lab­o­ra­tion spaces, along with an addi­tion­al 25,000 square feet of air­craft hangar space.

NAAMCE serves as a col­lab­o­ra­tive hub, bring­ing togeth­er key stake­hold­ers from the U.S. Air Force Research Lab­o­ra­to­ry, NASA, the Ohio Unmanned Air­craft Sys­tems Cen­ter, aca­d­e­m­ic insti­tu­tions and pri­vate indus­try. The facil­i­ty sup­ports a wide range of activ­i­ties, includ­ing the devel­op­ment and test­ing of eVTOL air­craft, high-speed VTOL air­craft and oth­er AAM tech­nolo­gies.

In addi­tion to its research and devel­op­ment func­tions, NAAMCE plays a piv­otal role in work­force devel­op­ment and train­ing. The cen­ter is equipped with eVTOL sim­u­la­tors to train crew mem­bers and sup­ports var­i­ous demon­stra­tion projects that show­case tech­nolo­gies advanc­ing AAM inte­gra­tion beyond the air­craft itself.
