The Airship Association Conference Page

Our next conference, UpShip! Ottawa '27, will be held in Ottawa, Canada in Spring 2027.

​

This conference will be hosted jointly with the CANHAV Alliance and ISOPOLAR and is specifically convened to bring together the three groups who must work in concert to launch this industry: the companies building the aircraft; the political leaders, ministers, and senior officials who control the public investment, the regulatory frameworks, and the procurement budgets; and the end-users whose documented commercial demand creates the business case.

​

The conference programme will span regulation, defence and dual-use applications, Arctic and remote logistics, critical minerals, ground infrastructure, capital and co-investment, and international cooperation.
