Groupe ADP and Lilium N.V. (NASDAQ: LILM), a leading electric
aircraft manufacturer and pioneer in Regional Air Mobility (RAM),
today announced a partnership to collaborate on infrastructures for
the Lilium Jet in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Groupe ADP,
which operates and develops 23 airports around the globe with its
two major partners TAV Airports and GMR Airports, will work with
Lilium to make its vertiports accessible to Lilium’s customers.
Groupe ADP strongly believes in the future of
AAM and gathered the key stakeholders of the ecosystem to make it
happen. Groupe ADP is proud to deliver the first vertiport network
in Europe, as an integral part of the Pioneers 2025 innovation
roadmap, for eVTOL aircraft like the Lilium Jet on its airports'
premises and with a strong foothold in Paris.
Groupe ADP is developing in particular
comprehensive vertiports at two prominent airports in the Paris
region - Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Le Bourget (home of The
Paris Airshow) - as well as a temporary site in the heart of Paris
in 2024. Groupe ADP’s vertiports will significantly bolster the
Lilium network in France and establish Paris as an important
regional hub for Lilium Jet operators. In addition to their
flagship locations in France, Groupe ADP operate an extensive
network of international airports around the world including key
sites in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and India. These
sites will be crucial for operators of the Lilium Jet as they work
to bring regional electric aviation to passengers starting in
2026.
Sebastien Borel, CCO of Lilium,
said: “It is becoming increasingly clear that some of the very
first eVTOL flights will happen in France and this partnership
brings that milestone closer into view.” He continued, “Groupe ADP
has an impressive portfolio of airports, both in France and around
the world in markets that will be key to Lilium’s commercial
operations.”
Edward Arkwright, Deputy CEO of Groupe
ADP, said: “As a pioneer in developing infrastructure for
advanced air mobility and a global airports operator, we are
thrilled to officialize the work we have been conducting with
Lilium to ensure the development of new services by eVTOL in the
Paris region and worldwide.”
