Yesterday, we joined key stakeholders—including companies, government representatives, education and knowledge institutions—to explore the future of innovative business in M4H. It’s clear that the greatest opportunities lie in connecting themes like 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲. At DronePort Rotterdam, we’re dedicated to discovering where these themes intersect, especially in smart mobility.

➡️ Proposing B2B events to showcase the combined strengths of our ecosystem and city.
➡️ Developing next-generation education focused on essential AUS skills for current and future generations.
➡️ Supporting the essential secure physical and digital infrastructure development for AUS.
