VPorts, a Quebec-based world leader in the design, construction and operation of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) infrastructure, announced today that it will create Quebec’s first regional electric AAM vertiport network. By 2030, the network will extend to all major Quebec regions, providing a sustainable transportation solution via electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. To create the first vertiport ecosystem in Quebec, VPorts—which designs its infrastructures to ensure safe, optimal operation—has partnered with best-in-class companies. The operational concept and requirements, including integration of air traffic management, are being developed by NUAIR, an engineering firm that is shaping the future of safe aircraft systems and advanced airborne mobility operation. UAM Geomatics is in charge of cost and revenue forecasting, geospatial mapping and vertiport network location mapping in Quebec. Innovitech is supporting VPorts by developing a stakeholder management strategy focused on social acceptance. AEdifica is developing the architectural concept for the network.
