Tech Webinar on Advanced Air Mobility, jointly organized by Concordia University’s Institute for Aerospace Design and Innovation (CIADI) and the Advanced Air Mobility Institute of the SDG Innovation Network.
Date: Thursday, April 9, 2026
Time: 12:00 – 1:30
Format: Online | Offered in English
Presented in collaboration with: Aéroports de Montréal.
Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is often presented as the next revolution in aviation. But behind the headlines and futuristic renderings lies a much harder reality: building safe, scalable, and economically viable aerial systems is an enormous engineering challenge.
In this webinar, the CEO of Moya Aero will share the real story of launching and growing a cutting-edge aerospace company in this emerging field. The talk will explore the technical, business, and regulatory barriers that define the industry today, as well as the milestones and lessons learned while developing large electric unmanned aircraft for cargo operations.
Special attention will be given to the key technological challenges shaping the future of AAM, including energy limitations and management, aircraft reliability and autonomy, certification of new aircraft architectures, integration with existing airspace systems, and the difficulty of scaling aerospace manufacturing.
Designed to inspire students, the session will also reflect on leadership, innovation, and the role the next generation of engineers will play in turning ambitious visions into real aerospace systems.
