eVTOL Insights Europe Conference

The Europe Conference is the European gathering of eVTOL Insights, a trade media outlet covering electric vertical take-off aircraft and the wider Advanced Air Mobility market. It is a multi-day programme (the 2026 edition in Toulouse ran from 14 to 16 October) of keynote presentations, panel debates and fireside chats, built around the commercial and regulatory questions facing aircraft developers on the continent. The host city changes from one edition to the next, so the event moves between European aviation hubs rather than keeping a fixed home.

Speakers come from aircraft manufacturers, operators, airports, infrastructure providers, investors and aviation authorities, together with guests from outside the sector who offer a broader view of certification, public acceptance and scaling up services. Delegates are mostly executives, engineers, programme managers and business developers working on eVTOL, hybrid-electric and hydrogen aircraft, as well as suppliers who sell into those programmes.

Discussion centres on how European regulation shapes type certification and operations, how vertiports and airport integration will work, and what it takes to move from prototype to series production. Technical themes include batteries and charging, electric and hybrid propulsion, flight control, avionics, lightweight structures and the supply chain behind them, which makes the programme useful for component makers looking for buyers among airframers.

Around the conference programme, organisers usually add guided visits, such as a tour of an aircraft developer’s facility or of an airport, plus an evening networking reception. Sponsorship packages are offered to companies that want visibility among the developers and operators present.
