UrbanV and Aeroporti di Roma will host the Airport AAM Masterclass, a high-level educational event dedicated to the integration of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) into contemporary airport and transportation systems.

The three-day program will take place September 23–25, 2025, at the Innovation Hub (Terminal 1) of Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO), Italy.

Tailored for airport executives, planners, engineers, and key industry stakeholders, this exclusive masterclass moves beyond the format of a traditional aviation summit. It delivers a structured, immersive learning experience led by top academics and industry leaders, with specialized modules and interactive workshops designed to equip participants with practical knowledge and actionable strategies.

The curriculum will address the core challenges and opportunities of AAM integration, with sessions covering:

  • Technical Innovations: Emerging technologies shaping the future of AAM.
  • Multimodal Integration: Approaches to harmonize AAM with existing airport and ground transportation infrastructure.
  • Economic Viability: Sustainable business models and investment frameworks.
  • Regulatory Challenges: Navigating evolving aviation policies and compliance landscapes.
  • Human & Environmental Considerations: Promoting societal acceptance, sustainability, and community engagement.

With a balanced and inclusive approach, the organizers—veterans in both aviation and AAM event management—welcome a wide range of perspectives. Whether participants are AAM advocates or cautious observers, the event will offer valuable insights into the strategic, operational, and societal implications of this transformative sector.

A distinguished lineup of speakers, including leading researchers, airport operators, and established figures from across the AAM ecosystem, will ensure a comprehensive and authoritative educational experience.
