The inaugural DRIFTx took place in Abu Dhabi last month, bringing together the latest future mobility solutions including flying taxis, eVTOLs, and seagliders.
Held at the iconic Yas Marina Circuit, the exhibition showcased the UAE’s dedication to autonomous, and sustainable urban mobility applications. The event convened industry titans, startups, and mobility leaders from across the world, firmly reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s emergence as a global hub for smart and autonomous mobility, while highlighting that eVTOL will be a popular mode of transport in the UAE and globally, much sooner than expected.
Over 8,000 visitors from more than 25 countries passed through DRIFTx’s doors, with global leaders from around the world engaging in discussions and fostering meaningful collaborations. Through showcasing the latest solutions, DRIFTx promoted partnerships and unlocked commercial and investment opportunities in the mobility space, supporting Abu Dhabi’s vision to provide a global platform that can be used as a test bed for technologies that are shaping the future of transportation and mobility across the world.
Namir Hourani, Managing Director of GMOLx, organisers of DRIFTx commented: “This week, some of the world’s most forward-thinking leaders and brightest minds convened at DRIFTx in Abu Dhabi, unlocking extremely important and high-level discussions that are sure to shape the way people and goods are transported, with advanced solutions that will be operational much sooner than anyone expected. Across the two days, we had an impressive speaker lineup, unique exhibitions, and very exciting live demonstrations, truly displaying what the future of urban air, land, and sea mobility is going to be like. We’re already looking forward to building on the energy and amazing vibe we witnessed this week to inspire another round of real-world breakthroughs at DRIFTx 2025.”
