About the Symposium

Welcome to the 2025 Tennessee Drone and Advanced Air Mobility Symposium. This year’s theme, Connected Skies, Empowered Communities: A Future Built on Collaboration and Innovation, highlights our commitment to advancing drone technology and advanced air mobility in ways that bring people together and strengthen communities across Tennessee and beyond.

The symposium brings together industry leaders, researchers, policymakers, and technology enthusiasts to exchange ideas, explore new trends, and share practical solutions that move unmanned aircraft systems and advanced air mobility forward.

We are proud to have Vanderbilt University as this year’s host, continuing its tradition of supporting research and innovation that make gatherings like this possible. The Tennessee Department of Transportation Aeronautics Division will serve as our Master of Ceremonies, guiding conversations and helping build meaningful connections throughout the event.

This year’s symposium will take place at the Loews Nashville Hotel at Vanderbilt Plaza, offering a comfortable and convenient setting in the heart of Nashville for learning, networking, and collaboration.

We invite you to join us and be part of the ideas, connections, and partnerships that will shape the future of our skies and empower our communities.
