Business Desk Ambassador of the Year

Our founder and CEO Prof. David Keene MBE had a bit of a surprise last night.

He was supporting TheBusinessDesk.com Business Awards in Birmingham when it moved to the last title of the evening…the prestigious Ambassador of the Year accolade.

Fifteen seconds into the winner’s preview, he quickly realised Afroze Zaidi and Alex Turner were talking about him!!!!

Safe to say, he’s delighted to be Business Desk’s Ambassador for the West Midlands and has promised to use the award to shout even louder about how great the region is on the global stage.

 

 

Aurrigo Showcase at CINCINNATI / NORTHERN KENTUCKY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

We were incredibly proud to welcome representatives from the Federal Aviation Administration and the Civil Aviation Authority onsite at CVG Airport – Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport to see our autonomous Auto-DollyTug® operating airside.

As automation accelerates across airport operations, it’s vital that regulators have the opportunity to experience the technology first-hand. Integration of autonomous ground support equipment isn’t just about innovation — it’s about robust safety cases, operational risk assessment, cybersecurity resilience, human–machine interaction, and ensuring seamless performance within mixed-traffic ramp environments.
Moments like this matter. Transparent collaboration between industry and regulators is what will shape clear pathways for certification and operational deployment. By showcasing the technology in real-world conditions, we collectively move closer to delivering safer, more resilient and more efficient airside operations.
A sincere thank you to all involved for the engagement and forward-thinking discussion.
