Why the quadruple helix approach?

The Quadruple Helix approach is an innovative model that emphasizes the active involvement of society in research and innovation processes, which is also vital for the development and deployment of Innovative Urban Air Mobility. We believe that by integrating societal perspectives, research trajectories can be better aligned with public preferences, leading to more sustainable and welcomed solutions that are not only technologically advanced but also socially relevant.Social added value-services and products are vital, meaning that DronePort wants to create positive societal impact for the entire region.
