The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), in strategic partnership with Hunch Mobility, will host the Urban Air Mobility Expo 2025 in Greater Noida from January 19-22, 2025. This event, a part of the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, will bring together industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to shape the future of urban air transportation in India. Supported by the Government of India and the Ministry of Civil Aviation, the 4-day expo will showcase cutting-edge technologies in UAVs, drones, eVTOL aircraft, and Advanced Short Haul Air Mobility.
Urban Air Mobility
Following the successful ASHA Conference in 2023, this expanded event aims to address the future of Urban Air Mobility (UAM). The event is seen as a crucial milestone in India’s journey toward revolutionary urban transportation solutions.
“The Urban Air Mobility Expo 2025 represents a crucial milestone in India’s journey toward revolutionary urban transportation solutions,” said Amit Dutta, Chairman CII Task Force on Advanced Air Mobility and MD, Hunch Mobility. “India’s unique landscape and diverse mobility needs make it the perfect environment for pioneering Urban Air Mobility (UAM) innovations. As urbanization accelerates, this platform will drive solutions to critical challenges like congestion and pollution. By blending global expertise with local innovation, we are not just imagining the future of mobility – we are actively creating it.”
India, with 341.05 million passengers as the world’s third-largest aviation market, is set to lead the UAM revolution. The country’s commitment to electric air mobility and the increasing use of UAVs in areas such as precision agriculture, infrastructure inspection, and disaster management highlights its readiness for technological advancement. Opportunities in pilgrimage travel, air ambulances, last-mile deliveries, and mega-events are paving the way for India to become a significant hub for UAM innovation.
What the expo includes?
The Expo will feature comprehensive conferences addressing critical industry topics, including policy frameworks, ecosystem development, and regulatory roadmaps. Attendees will have the opportunity to experience live demonstrations of eVTOLs and drones and see exhibits from leading OEMs and suppliers.
The conference program will delve into essential areas such as UAM policy development, infrastructure requirements, manufacturing opportunities, and urban air traffic management systems. Industry professionals can participate through various channels, with exhibition space available at USD 200 per square meter for raw space and USD 220 per square meter for built-up booths. Conference registration is open to delegates at INR 2,500 per day for Indian participants and USD 250 per day for international delegates.
The Urban Air Mobility Expo 2025 will serve as a pivotal platform for the global UAM community to network, explore partnerships, and collaborate on innovative solutions that will define the future of urban transportation.
