Tennessee’s skies are evolving—and so is our vision for the future of aviation technology. The 2025 Tennessee Drone and Advanced Air Mobility Symposium builds on the overwhelming success of last year’s inaugural event with an expanded agenda, broader participation, and a new home in Nashville to increase accessibility and statewide impact.

We are extremely pleased to welcome Vanderbilt University as our Host and to announce the Tennessee Department of Transportation, Aeronautics Division as our Master of Ceremonies, underscoring the strong leadership and statewide collaboration driving this year’s event. With this year’s theme—Connected Skies, Empowered Communities: A Future Built on Collaboration and Innovation—we’re bringing together government leaders, industry pioneers, researchers, and advocates to explore how drone and advanced air mobility (AAM) technologies can be safely and meaningfully integrated into Tennessee’s communities, infrastructure, and economy. 

This is more than a conference. It’s a collective effort to ensure that innovation uplifts people and places across the state. Featuring expert panels, focused breakout sessions, and built-in opportunities for networking and collaboration, the symposium is designed to meet the real-world needs of our participants—and to keep Tennessee at the forefront of aviation innovation. Join us as we connect, empower, and shape what’s next.
