Skyportz® has unveiled at the Dubai Airshow its Aeroberm™ vertipad to the Middle East market, launching a transformative opportunity for the property industry to participate directly in the fast-moving Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) sector.
As global aviation leaders, major manufacturers, and government agencies accelerate the rollout of electric air taxi operations in the Middle East, Skyportz is addressing the critical infrastructure gap – the need for a dense network of new take-off and landing sites beyond traditional airports and heliports.
The Aeroberm™ patented modular vertipad system, has been engineered specifically to enable rooftops, carparks, industrial sites, hotels, mixed-use precincts, tourism assets and private properties to join the aviation network—affordably and safely.
There is enormous momentum in the AAM industry right now in the region, but none of this will reach its full potential without thousands of new places to take off and land. The property industry will play a decisive role, and the Aeroberm is the enabling technology that will make this possible.
“The property industry is the missing piece of the AAM puzzle.” Clem Newton-Brown, CEO of Skyportz, said “There is enormous momentum in the AAM space in the Middle East, with the big players pushing forward with aircraft, certification and operations. But this industry cannot scale without thousands of new landing sites. The property industry is the missing piece of the puzzle, and the Aeroberm finally gives them a safe, compliant, and affordable way to join the aviation sector.”
“The property sector will now be able to deliver the multitude of destinations needed for a truly functional AAM network, and Aeroberm is the enabling technology to make that possible. The Aeroberm can give property owners an affordable plug-and-play vertipad solution and give the aviation companies the landing infrastructure they urgently need.”
A Vertipad Designed for Real-World Urban Deployment
The Aeroberm solves the three primary barriers that have prevented new urban vertipad approvals:
1. Downwash Management
2. Noise Reduction
3. Fire Safety
This combination makes the Aeroberm the first practical solution for establishing a fine-grained network of air taxi destinations across dense urban environments.
Skyportz will be demonstrating the Aeroberm™ at Stand V29 throughout the Dubai Airshow. Property developers, asset owners, investors, aviation companies and regulators are invited to visit the stand to:
- Experience the Aeroberm system.
- Learn how to establish new vertipad sites.
- Explore partnership, distribution and deployment opportunities across the UAE and internationally.
