European ANSPs: "World ATM Congress Will be an Outstanding Event"
European CANSO CEO Committee (EC3) Members have expressed their enthusiasm
for the World ATM Congress in Madrid, 12-14 February 2013.
As preparations for the event continue on track, CANSO’s European Member CEOs
have confirmed their intentions to contribute to its success.
Massimo Garbini, Chair of the EC3 and CEO of ENAV S.p.A. said: “Cooperation between
airlines, airports and air navigation service providers, as well as increased coordination
between regions, is essential for the successful transformation of global ATM
performance. World ATM Congress is our opportunity to align industry priorities and
initiatives for the benefit of all stakeholders.”
EC3 Members attending the CANSO Global ATM Summit & 16th AGM, hosted by ENAV
S.p.A. in Rome today, reiterated their commitment to exclusively attend World ATM
Congress in 2013.
“World ATM Congress will be an outstanding event with first-class speakers and a
conference programme which addresses our industry’s most important questions. An
18,000m2 exhibition in one hall also gives us an opportunity to continue building fruitful
relationships with our suppliers so we can move into a new era of innovation together.”

looking conference our industry has ever seen. We will bring together the ‘best of the best’
speakers from the aviation and business communities, giving delegates a new perspective
on what is needed to propel industry transformation.”
Reflecting on CANSO’s role as a global aviation partner, Mr Riemens stressed that the
conference would be relevant to all aviation stakeholders around the world. High level
speakers will include representatives from air navigation service providers, airlines, airports,
political decision makers and business leaders.
The announcement coincided with the launch of a promotional video campaign designed to
promote the event and the overwhelming support it has gained from ATM leaders.
A series of videos feature ANSP and supplier CEOs from around the world, who explain the
thinking behind the event before declaring their full and exclusive support. The first video is
available to view on the event’s YouTube channel:
ATCA President and CEO Peter F. Dumont said: “The fact that so many ATM leaders are
exclusively supporting the World ATM Congress demonstrates the need for just such an
event – for the industry, by the industry.”
Mr Riemens concluded: “I know I speak for CANSO’s entire Membership when I say that we
are very proud of World ATM Congress. As an international, large-scale exhibition and
conference organised for the industry, by the industry we have created a truly remarkable
forum for thought leadership and debate.”
