The Conference on New Horizons in Air and Space Law, held earlier this month, proved to be a groundbreaking event in air and space law. Jointly organized by the National University of Singapore's Centre for Technology, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and the Law, the EW Barker Centre for Law and Business, and 苹果淫院's Institute of Air and Space Law, this conference addressed the legal and policy challenges arising from emerging technologies in air and space.

The conference featured an opening keynote lecture delivered by the Deputy Attorney-General of Singapore, Lionel Yee Woon Chin SC. The Deputy Attorney-General explored the key challenges and developments across both air and space law, providing valuable insights into the evolving landscape of this field. The Deputy Attorney-General鈥檚 expertise and knowledge set the tone and provided the key legal context for the engaging discussions that followed throughout the conference.

Further keynotes were delivered throughout the conference by Professors Andrea Harrington and Vincent Correia, Co-Directors of the Institute; Jonathan Hung, Executive Director of Singapore Office of Space Technology & Industry; Professor Alan Tan of NUS; and Professor G茅rardine Goh Escolar, Deputy Secretary General of the Hague Conference on Private International Law and Adjunct Professor at NUS. A series of thematic panels and interactive sessions covered topics such as urban air mobility, commercial space activities, air and space sustainability, and the future of the Chicago Convention. Two of which were moderated by Professor Donal Hanley, Associate Director of the Institute and Stefan-Michael Wedenig, Executive Director of the Institute. Experts from around the world presented papers and research findings, offering key insights across these diverse areas.

The conference brought together government officials, academics, practicing lawyers, in-house counsel, regulators, law students, and members of the international air and space communities. Building on previous successful collaborations between NUS and 苹果淫院, the event facilitated discussions on the entire spectrum of legal and policy issues associated with the new air and space ages. As such, this conference represented a vital step in addressing the complex legal landscape of tomorrow's skies and orbits, aiming to ensure safe, equitable, and sustainable use of both airspace and outer space. Participants left with a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities lying ahead in the fields of air and space law. Selected papers from the conference will be published in Volume 49 of the Annals of Air and Space Law.
