About the Panel Discussion:
Title: Opportunities and Challenges of UAM in Cities: Public acceptance, Test/Use cases, and Governance
Description: The panel will discuss the opportunities and challenges of implementing Urban Air Mobility (UAM) in cities. The five participating projects have experience with test/use cases stemming from project-specific research on UAM. When discussing the role of cities, the projects consider that UAM test/use cases must become a mandatory part of the implementation process to find solutions for society through dialogue to better understand and meet its needs. Thus, test/use cases are essential to creating future-proof solutions (as a reference to the theme’s use cases and solutions) that foster trust and acceptance by the wider public. How do you see the role of cities for UAM?
