Flying into the Future: How Joby Aviation is Reshaping Urban Air Mobility

In this episode of Tech Talks, Bonny Simi, President of Operations at Joby Aviation, takes us inside the world of electric air taxis and the future of urban air mobility. As a seasoned aviation leader and former JetBlue executive, Bonny shares how Joby is developing eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft to revolutionize short-haul travel.

We discuss the challenges of scaling an entirely new form of transportation, the regulatory hurdles that come with pioneering a new industry, and how Joby is tackling safety, infrastructure, and public trust. Bonny also reflects on her career journey—breaking barriers in both aviation and technology—and what it takes to lead in an emerging, high-stakes sector.
