Women in Tech - At the forefront of innovation: Andrea Wu, Urban-Air Port

In episode 7, we are joined by Andrea Wu, CEO of Urban-Air Port, the company behind the world’s first vertiport designed for electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles. Interviewed by James Baillieu, Corporate Partner in our London office, Andrea offers insights into the rapidly evolving landscape of advanced air mobility and the vital role ground, air, and digital infrastructure play in this space. Andrea shares the founding vision behind Urban-Air Port—addressing the need for innovative infrastructure that supports the emerging eVTOL market, which promises to revolutionise urban transportation. She discusses how this technology will reshape the future of cities by providing more efficient, sustainable, and connected mobility solutions. Beyond Urban-Air Port, Andrea reflects on her diverse career trajectory. She talks about her early influence by pioneers in high-tech architecture, particularly in the UK, where she learned to harness innovation and integrate various transport modes to improve urban connectivity and wellbeing. She recalls working on landmark projects like the regeneration of Battersea Power Station and the Wembley Masterplan, experiences that later informed her transition into sectors like aviation and ultimately, advanced air mobility. In the conversation, Andrea also addresses the environmental and funding challenges Urban-Air Port faces. As a business leader, she delves into the complexities of navigating these hurdles while staying committed to delivering a cutting-edge solution for future cities.
