The CAFE Foundation this week announced the dates for their 10th annual Electric Aircraft Symposium, May 19 and 20, at the Marriott Waterfront in San Francisco. "CAFE Foundation believes that collaborative efforts are key in order to push forward electric flight," the group said in a news release. "EAS 2016 will bring together the people who are vital to this effort, with a special focus on early entry practical market opportunities." CAFE also said they are working with industry agencies and organizations to broaden the scope of topics and the roster of speakers. The event will be competing with a similar event, also set for May in the Bay area, that is being promoted by Brien Seeley, the former executive director of CAFE, who has formed a new organization, the Sustainable Aviation Foundation.
