On August 5, 2026, the 2026 AVIONOVA ECOSYSTEMS OPEN DAY & NEW OFFICE OPENING CEREMONY was successfully held in the Chengdu High-Tech Zone. As the first offline event following the establishment of the Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) Avionics & Flight Control Open Ecosystem Alliance at the Shanghai AAM Expo in July, it gathered OEMs, supply chain partners, and industry media. Centered around the inauguration of the new office, the event featured in-depth exchanges on AAM avionics and flight control ecosystem building, technology sharing, and industry chain collaboration.
The Open Ecosystem Alliance, initially formed by AvioNova, the Civil Aviation University of China (CAUC), and 13 supply chain partners, welcomed new members during this event. AvioNova sincerely invites more industry partners with a shared vision to join the alliance and jointly construct the future blueprint of China’s low-altitude economy.
Event Highlights
After registration, guests toured the corporate showroom for a firsthand look at AvioNova’s development history, business progress, and one-stop AAM avionics and flight control solutions. Following the official commencement of the ceremony, James Liu, CEO of AvioNova, delivered a welcome speech, greeting all attendees and reiterating the mission and vision of the Open Ecosystem Alliance.
Representatives from three OEMs—AEROFUGIA, DREAMFLY, and Range Aviation—shared their insights based on industrialization practices. They expressed high recognition for their cooperation with AvioNova and the phased achievements of ecosystem co-construction.
AvioNova then delivered presentations on technology and ecosystem building, focusing on flight control systems, avionics integration, and upstream-downstream coordination. Three supply chain representatives from the alliance also shared their collaborative achievements.
Subsequently, at the new office opening ceremony, George Chang, President and CEO of AVIAGE SYSTEMS, and James Liu, CEO of AvioNova, joined hands with AvioNova’s launch customer AEROFUGIA, supply chain representatives, and AvioNova’s founding employee representatives to officially inaugurate the new Chengdu office.
During the concluding media Q&A session, leaders and guests from AVIAGE SYSTEMS, AvioNova, OEM customers, and supply chain partners provided in-depth answers regarding the development trends and future outlook of the low-altitude industry. They offered multi-dimensional insights from various perspectives, including airworthiness, industrialization, ecosystem synergy, and technology roadmaps.
Practical Results of Ecosystem Cooperation
A special AAM Avionics and Flight Control Integration Exhibition Area was set up on-site, where several supply chain partners from the alliance showcased their products. OEMs were able to explore full-chain supporting resources in a one-stop manner, while suppliers gained a direct channel to communicate with end customers—a vivid embodiment of AvioNova’s open ecosystem philosophy.
Future Outlook
Sustaining the industrial momentum generated by the alliance’s launch at the July Shanghai Expo, this event gradually establishes a long-term, stable communication platform for the industry chain, marking a critical milestone in AvioNova’s low-altitude ecosystem layout. Leveraging the new Chengdu office, AvioNova and its ecosystem partners will fully utilize their mature system integration capabilities and airworthiness experience from the aviation sector. Through standardized, generalized, and scalable solutions, they aim to accelerate the safe, compliant, and commercial deployment of low-altitude aircraft.
AvioNova will normalize technical exchanges and business collaborations, bridging OEMs with the upstream and downstream supply chains, as well as R&D, manufacturing, and regulatory channels. It will also continuously expand talent development and capacity building to perfect its industry services.
Always upholding the philosophy of “Openness, Integration, and Win-Win,” AvioNova will join hands with all partners to delve deep into the avionics and flight control sector, leveraging its open ecosystem to boost the high-quality development of the low-altitude economy.
