Aerospace & Automotive Mobility

Our world is rapidly changing as mobility technology becomes increasingly capable of autonomous operations. Driverless cars are in widespread use in some cities in the United States. Vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drones are expanding to include cargo and human traffic. Against the steady progress of technology, regulatory systems for managing air traffic over cities as well as technology safety are lagging behind. This half-day session will explore the forefront of Aerospace and Automotive Mobility.

Session 1: The Mobility Innovation Future

10:00 – 11:30             
 

As societies grow and urbanise, we confront common problems in terms of mobility. These include traffic congestion, pollution and space constraints. At the same time, the classic commuter model shows that mobility assets remain relatively under-utilized. In addition, the European Union has committed to a ban on sales of internal combustion vehicles in 2035, and to full net zero for carbon emissions by 2050. This session will examine the business case for mobility investments, focussing on city planning, regulation, sustainability and energy demand scenarios.
