Empowering Digital Inclusion from the Skies: EHang at UN Digital Cooperation Day

As the only Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) / eVTOL representative invited to the 2nd UN Digital Cooperation Day during the 81st UN General Assembly High-Level Week, EHang engaged with global leaders and city representatives at the Local Action for Digital Inclusion roundtable.

Speaking at the session, our CFO Conor Yang highlighted the vital connection between digital infrastructure and urban aviation:

“Pilotless eVTOLs, such as the EH216-S, serve as the physical extension of a smart, digital urban mobility network. By advancing initiatives like our Global Fast Track Program and regulatory sandboxes across regions including Thailand and Sri Lanka, we are validating how autonomous flight can directly address real community needs.”

In dialogue with city leaders and the Mayors for Digital Cooperation (MDC), EHang urged mayors and urban planners to integrate air mobility infrastructure into broader digital master plans. Low-altitude digital infrastructure bridges geographic divides, ensuring life-saving services reach traditionally underserved areas through:

Vital Medical Transport: Fast, reliable delivery of critical medicines, diagnostics, and supplies across fragmented terrain.

Rapid Emergency Response: Instant first-response deployment during natural disasters or fire of skyscrapers and urban gridlock.

Essential Logistics: Resilient air links for isolated communities to ensure equitable access to economic resources.

By aligning with the Cities Digital Inclusion Toolkit, EHang continues to bridge cutting-edge autonomous technology with local governance—building safe, resilient, and inclusive skies where no one is left behind.
