The Royal Aeronautical Society’s President’s Summit is our flagship annual event on a key topic in aerospace, chosen by the Society’s President. The 2023 summit, hosted by the 2023-24 President of the RAeS Kerissa Khan MRAeS, focuses on the theme of ‘Future of Flight’ and explores the potential for Advanced Air Mobility Technologies to transform urban, rural and regional transport as we know it.

Overview
During this summit, we’ll be welcoming a wide range of senior decision-makers across the transport ecosystem – including aircraft manufacturers, supply chain companies, investors, regulators, government and local authority representatives – who will review the progress of flight technologies, from lightweight fuel cells to aircraft autonomy, and how these platforms are being applied to pioneering flight trials today. Interactive panel discussions will debate the reliability, efficiency and applicability of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft designs, and predict the real world business models for AAM operations.
