– About the future of the aviation industry through Advanced Digitalisation and the transformative project Air Mobility
Welcome to participate for 45 minutes to learn more about the Air Mobility project, which is
funded by one of Sweden’s largest research and innovation programs, Advanced Digitalisation.
Advanced Digitalisation is currently an ongoing and significant billion-dollar investment in Sweden.
One of the major projects being funded is Advanced Air Mobility, which aims to explore how,
through broad collaboration and modern technology, we can develop a more digitized future with
unmanned flight in combination with the conventional.
During the seminar, a panel will discuss how Air Mobility contributes to increased automation with
increased sustainability in the transport sector through digitization, automation and artificial
intelligence. How will a developed combined airspace work, what will future airports look like and
what challenges are there to enable door-to-door transport?
The seminar begins with a presentation on Advanced Digitization and then focuses on Air Mobility
and its importance for the aviation infrastructure of the future.
Welcome to participate and listen to the seminar’s discussions about the aviation industry and its
role in the global transport sector.

Join AI Sweden’s side event during Sweden Innovation Days, where we delve into projects that may reshape industries and mindsets to drive innovation forward. Our webinar brings together thought leaders and experts to explore the intersection of technology, healthcare, climate and societal impact.
Two Key Topics:
AI for Deep Green Transition: Explore how AI can catalyze a global shift towards sustainability
We’ll showcase a groundbreaking project led by AI Sweden and World Wildlife Fund (WWF) aimed at identifying how to accelerate the world’s mindset towards green transition. Learn why it’s important to investigate how AI can catalyze a global shift towards sustainability and how it can change behaviors in society to really address environmental challenges on a deep systemic level and drive impactful change.
During this part of the session we will interact with the audience through the webinar chat function to give the attendees the opportunity to give input to the project on how AI can catalyze a global shift towards sustainability and e.g. share suggestions for experts that can share valuable input knowledge. We are eager to give the attendees a chance to interact and influence the project.
