UrbanV has initiated plans for a five-site vertiport network in São Paulo to support electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The project, presented at LABACE 2026, involves partnerships with PAX Aeroportos, Helicenter/Ponte Aérea, and GL events to evaluate and enhance existing aviation infrastructure.
Key sites include Campo de Marte Airport and several convention venues, which will help integrate air taxi services with major commercial districts. ENGIE will assess the electrical infrastructure to meet eVTOL charging needs, aligning development with aircraft certification timelines.
This network aims to be operational by the time eVTOL services launch, mitigating potential infrastructure bottlenecks. The initiative is backed by São Paulo Negócios and the Brazilian Civil Aviation Authority (ANAC), which is establishing vertiport guidelines.
