A week ago, I had the opportunity to attend and be a speaker at the Opening Conference themed "U-Space & UAS: Challenges and Opportunities in the IPA Area" in the city of Bari (Università degli Studi di Bari), for the SOFTMOVE project. I talked about the initiatives, such as the "Drones Beyond" events, that the DTA is using to promote the use of air mobility.
This initiative is part of the Interreg IPA South Adriatic Programme, co-funded by the European Union, and brings together the minds from Italy' DTA Distretto Tecnologico Aerospaziale scarl, Albania's Autoriteti Shtetëror për Informacionin Gjeohapësinor, and Montenegro's Digital Den.
🎤 The event was packed with presentations and testimonials from academia, research centers, and industry leaders, all showcasing the groundbreaking progress and applications of U-space and innovative aerial services.
🌍 SOFTMOVE is all about fostering cross-border cooperation for sustainable development, especially focusing on helping Albania and Montenegro gear up for EU accession. The key priorities? Think greener areas, circular economy, boosting mobility and regional connectivity.
🔜 This conference was just the kickoff! Throughout the year, we'll be diving into joint activities, workshops, trainings, and action plans across Italy, Albania, and Montenegro. 🇮🇹🇲🇪🇦🇱
