According to Aviation AFRICA Summit chair, Alan Peaford: “The 8th Aviation Africa Summit has once again drawn a fantastic response from speakers from across the continent and further afield to debate the issues and challenges the continent undoubtedly faces to realise its full potential.”
According to Mark Brown, CEO of Times Aerospace Events, which organises the event: “With around 1,500 delegates expected to attend Aviation AFRICA in South Africa the Summit will be our largest ever.”
The Aviation Africa Summit & Exhibition is regarded as the continent’s leading annual meeting place for the continent’s commercial air transport industry.
“This is the first time the event has taken place in South Africa, and it comes at an important time as the country recovers and rebuilds from the turbulence of the past few years,” said Brown.
