China’s role in scaling advanced air mobility: infrastructure, vertiports and global knowledge transfer

China is accelerating advanced air mobility (AAM) through supportive policies, a growing low-altitude economy and public-private collaboration. With strengths in electric batteries, electric vehicles, telecommunications and drones, China is building a robust AAM ecosystem. Companies like EHang are pioneering vertiport infrastructure, digital air traffic management and global UAM expansion, powered by the country's cutting-edge unmanned eVTOL aircraft technology. By sharing expertise, EHang is shaping safe, scalable AAM integration worldwide. This session explores how China’s regulatory strategies, technological synergies and infrastructure development can inform global AAM implementation, ensuring efficient urban air mobility (UAM) operations in diverse markets.

The audience will learn:

• How China’s policies and regulatory frameworks are accelerating advanced air mobility (AAM) and urban air mobility (UAM) adoption
• How China's low-altitude economy is driving investment in vertiports, air traffic management and supporting infrastructure
• How China’s leadership in electric batteries, EVs, telecommunications and drone technology is accelerating AAM
• How EHang is leveraging unmanned eVTOL technology to advance vertiport networks, digital air traffic systems and scalable urban air mobility solutions, worldwide
