What is World ATM Congress?
World ATM Congress is an international event created for the ATM industry, by the ATM industry. Two of the industry’s leading associations, CANSO, the Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation, in association with ATCA, the Air Traffic Control Association, are organising this major must-attend annual event for the air traffic management community. World ATM Congress combines a large-scale exhibition and thought-leadership conference to provide significant networking opportunities and the chance to find out the latest trends and developments in air traffic control.
World ATM Congress is organised by the industry, for the industry and has the backing of leading air navigation service providers and industry suppliers.
Is World ATM Congress different from CANSO World?
World ATM Congress is the evolution of CANSO World. By bringing together ATCA (Air Traffic Control Association) and CANSO (Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation) the World ATM Congress is truly a world-class global event. This extraordinary team brings together unparalleled ATM knowledge and decades of successful event execution for the ATM industry. World ATM Congress is a can’t-miss international ATM event.
Where and when is World ATM Congress taking place?
The first World ATM Congress took place in Madrid, Spain from 12 – 14 February , 2013. To avoid hosting the event on top of the Chinese New Year, World ATM Congress 2014 will be held 4 – 6 March.
Why Madrid?
After an in-depth analysis of multiple locations around the world, we found Madrid to offer the best combination of facilities, transport connections, climate, and cost-effectiveness.
What is the need for World ATM Congress?
The field of air traffic management is at a critical point – technology is changing at a rapid pace, economic and political stability varies across the globe – for all these reasons and more, ATM needs real leadership to drive and manage change. That leadership should come from the industry itself. World ATM Congress will provide a platform for aviation leaders to discuss the way forward. It is the only event being organised by the industry, for the industry.
Why are CANSO and ATCA working together?
World ATM Congress is the joint endeavor of CANSO (Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation) and ATCA (Air Traffic Control Association). This extraordinary team brings together unparalleled ATM knowledge and decades of successful event execution for the ATM industry. Furthermore, as non-profits, both ATCA and CANSO work in the best interests of our industry – we understand your needs and what interests you.
Is World ATM Congress a good value?
If you are a start-up organisation, have been established in the air traffic community, or are moving into a new sector in the ATM market, World ATM Congress is a value that cannot be beat!
