Varon Vehicles’ next think tank to look at vertiports in Latin America

The con­cept of ver­ti­ports and where they wil fit in urban envi­ron­ments across Latin Amer­i­ca will be the next top­ic dis­cussed in the third think tank by Varon Vehi­cles.

The com­pa­ny is look­ing to bring stake­hold­ers from across the indus­try into con­ver­sa­tions about the imple­men­ta­tion of Urban Air Mobil­i­ty (UAM) in Latin Amer­i­ca, and the one-hour vir­tu­al ses­sion takes place from 12noon — 1pm EDT on Fri­day, 11th Sep­tem­ber.

Top­ics to be dis­cussed will include Lack of Urban Space/Ground Lev­el Con­struc­tion; Place­ment Selection/Integration to City Inter­modal­i­ty; Inte­gra­tion: TNCs, Park­ing, Micro­mo­bil­i­ty; Pas­sen­ger Demand Man­age­ment and Mod­u­lar vs. Land­mark Designs.

Felipe Varon, CEO of Varon Vehi­cles, said: “The Think Tanks have been tremen­dous­ly enrich­ing, not only because we talk about UAM but because we’re look­ing at the spe­cif­ic imple­men­ta­tion issues of UAM in Latin Amer­i­ca. We’re see­ing a lot of trac­tion and the pur­pose of push­ing for­ward our imple­men­ta­tion plans is real­ly being achieved, as the Think Tanks are accom­pa­nied by inside work with all par­tic­i­pants.

“Those UAM stake­hold­ers who have not reg­is­tered so far should real­ly do so because, even though the Think Tank record­ings can be watched lat­er, attend­ing the live ses­sions allows you to lis­ten to live inter­pre­ta­tion between Eng­lish and Span­ish unlike the record­ings, and allows all to inter­act with our world class pan­elists to get ques­tions answered and thoughts con­veyed.

“This is a tremen­dous­ly valu­able way to active­ly engage with the Varon Vehi­cles ecosys­tem as we push for­ward our first imple­men­ta­tion of UAM.”

Con­firmed speak­ers are Charles Clauser from PS&S Inte­grat­ed Ser­vices, Sankar Villupu­ram of Arup, Gary Ver­maak from Air­Taxi Now, Lawrence Spinet­ta of KPMG, Clement Mon­net, for­mer CEO of Voom by Air­bus, and Car­los Par­do — New Urban Mobil­i­ty Alliance NUMO.

It will be host­ed by Felipe Varon, CEO of Varon Vehi­cles, and co-host­ed by Adri­ana Varon, Varon Vehi­cles’ Chief Finan­cial Offi­cer.

There are eight think tanks alto­geth­er and once com­plet­ed, the find­ings from all of the con­ver­sa­tions will be pre­sent­ed at a three-day sum­mit called Sky­scraper, which will take place from 18–20th Novem­ber.
