The global vertiport market is set for explosive growth, with forecasts varying widely from $10 billion to $36 billion by 2030/2034. North America is expected to lead, but many analysts overlook China's "low altitude economy." Notably, the rooftop/elevated vertiport segment is projected to grow the fastest, driven by urban infrastructure integration and eVTOL advancements. However, the reliance on existing aeronautical facilities like airports and heliports may slow the adoption of these new structures. As urban air mobility (UAM) evolves, the demand for specialised infrastructure, including charging stations and landing pads, will skyrocket.
