AUVSI Cascade Networking Event | Tuesday, January 27, 2026

Join us at WSDOT Headquarters for an engaging afternoon of networking, light snacks, and beverages as you connect with innovators, industry leaders, and public-sector partners shaping the future of uncrewed systems, robotics, and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM).

Washington State is emerging as a national leader in preparing for the integration of electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) and other electric and hydrogen aircraft—and this event goes beyond aircraft talk to focus on real-world system planning.

Learn how AAM is being integrated into Washington’s multimodal transportation network through practical, on-the-ground efforts guided by the WSDOT AAM Aircraft Plan, developed under ESHB 1125.

Topics and discussions will explore the questions that determine success, including:

  • Near-term timelines (2026–2030)
  • Upgrades to existing airports and heliports
  • Transit-adjacent vertiport concepts
  • Energy and charging needs
  • Evolving FAA vertiport standards
  • Community considerations such as safety and noise

 This is a unique opportunity to:

  • Connect with AUVSI (Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International) members, industry experts, and public-sector leaders
  • Learn how autonomous and uncrewed technologies are being integrated into transportation systems today
  • Build new relationships and renew existing business and professional connections
  • Be part of conversations shaping the future of mobility in Washington and beyond

 

Registration is limited — reserve your spot today.

Guests are welcome, and all are encouraged to attend.
