Archer Aviation is set to take center stage at the US Chamber of Commerce’s 2023 Global Aerospace Summit in Washington D.C. on September 12-13, 2023.

Archer’s Midnight eVTOL will be the featured aircraft on display and CEO and Founder Adam Goldstein, and Chief Safety Officer, Billy Nolen, will discuss Archer and the larger eVTOL aircraft industry’s progress towards the goal of beginning commercial operations in 2025 and reaching scaled operations by 2028.

Having made its international debut earlier this year at the Paris Air Show, this will be the first-ever public display of Midnight in the United States. The last time an eVTOL aircraft was on display at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center was in 2019 at the Uber Elevate Conference.

“This year’s theme for the Global Aerospace Summit, ‘Innovating the Skies, Connecting the World,’ perfectly describes what Archer and our industry is on the doorstep of achieving,” said Archer’s Founder and CEO Adam Goldstein. “The future of urban air mobility is upon us thanks to the strong support from the whole of the U.S. government as well as the collaboration across the industry, including from mobility leaders like United Airlines, Boeing and Stellantis.”

The Global Aerospace Summit is the premier event in the space and aviation industries, bringing together government leaders and industry experts from across the world. In addition to Archer’s Goldstein and Nolen, speakers include United Airlines CEO, Scott Kirby, Airbus CEO, Guillaume Faury, American Airlines CEO, Robert Isom, The Honorable Glenn Youngkin, Governor, Commonwealth of Virginia and many more.
