“As our Regional Ambassador, Heron AirBridge will play a crucial role in advancing the mission of GUTMA and shape the future of the UTM industry,” said Koen De Vos, Secretary General of Global UTM Association. “Together we can engage in impactful regulatory processes to foster a global ecosystem in a fair drone services market.”
