"Think globally but act locally”
After a few days at the Amsterdam Drone Week, the conclusion was that the work on the Skellefteå Droneport is a crucial piece in the development of drones and drone-related services.
ELIS invites to a seminar where we present the outcome of two innovative projects aimed to accelerate the introduction of electric vertical take off and landing aircraft (eVTOLs) and drones in the transport system.
Date: February 15
Time: 9:00-12:00
Place: On site at Skellefteå Science Park or digitally
This project has investigated opportunities and challenges in the air and on the ground for eVTOL flights between Northvolt ETT and Skellefteå Airport.
This project has examined the opportunity of establishing a drone port at a brand new logistic site being built in Skellefteå at Hammarängen.
This is an opportunity to understand the development towards electric aviation and use of drones in Skellefteå and the wider region. Join us on this day as we share new knowledge uncovered through the two projects, lessons learned and the way forward.

After a few days at the Amsterdam Drone Week, the conclusion was that the work on the Skellefteå Droneport is a crucial piece in the development of drones and drone-related services.
On March 16-17, ELIS program and Skanska are participating in Amsterdam Drone Week, Europe's largest conference and trade show in the drone industry.
The collaboration project TakeOff focuses on building competence and increasing knowledge in electric aviation to achieve the goal of reducing dependence on fossil fuels and enabling a more environmentally friendly future for aviation.
