Projects
EUSOME (Enabling Autonomous Aerial Systems through Operational Methods and Technological Enhancements) is a Horizon Europe Excellence Hub dedicated to advancing Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) in the Southeast Mediterranean region. Bringing together research organisations, public authorities, industry partners, and innovation experts from across Europe, the project aims to accelerate the adoption of AAM solutions tailored to regional needs. Through research, training, stakeholder engagement, and the development of strategic roadmaps and innovation infrastructure, EUSOME is laying the foundations for a future where drones and autonomous aerial systems support transportation, emergency response, environmental monitoring, and climate resilience.

The SAFIR-Ready initiative is at the forefront of transforming emergency medical and critical infrastructure responses through the utilization of Advanced Aerial Mobility and U-Space technologies. Acknowledging the vital importance of time in urgent situations, the project harnesses Unmanned Aerial Vehicles’ capabilities to swiftly transport medical supplies and samples. This acceleration in response time holds the potential to save lives. Nevertheless, the adoption of these operations has been impeded by the absence of appropriate regulations and infrastructure. SAFIR-Ready’s primary objective is to tackle this obstacle head-on by pioneering the development of comprehensive U-space services, systems, and procedures. These advancements are meticulously designed to ensure both the safety and efficiency of airspace access.

Safe and Flexible Integration of Advanced U-Space Services Focusing on Medical Air Mobility.
The SAFIR-Med project’s vision is to achieve safe, sustainable, socially accepted and socially beneficial urban air mobility. SAFIR-Med represents all value chain actors and stakeholder as either project partner (ATC, USPs, Operators, UAS Manufacturers, cities) or formal associate partner (major customers, technology & service providers) at a representative international level. Five unmanned UAV platforms (passenger eVTOL, Hydrogen fuel cell VTOL, AED medical drone, X8 medical transport) will be combined with manned aviation in real life exercises validating technology in real urban environment.
