Event To Be Held In Novi, MI February 2-3, 2007
Representatives on the planning
committee for the Great Lakes International Aviation Conference
told ANN this weekend the event is expanding for 2007, and moving
to Michigan's newest convention center, the Rock Financial
Showplace.
Located in Novi, MI -- one of the fastest growing suburbs in
southeast Michigan -- the new venue is a state-of-the-art facility,
and is easily accessible from I-96.
"We are excited about the move and how it will enhance the
conference," said Todd Smith, the Conference Coordinator. "We have
had many requests from attendees and exhibiters who desire to be
closer to the major Detroit market. The new location will certainly
accommodate their needs."
Over the past six years, the GLIAC has developed steadily into
the premier event of its kind in the Midwest. The 2007 conference
will feature an expanded exhibit hall and a new line-up of
outstanding speakers and products.
Central to this year's event will be an Aviation Jobs and Career
Fair. With the help of the Michigan Institute of Aviation and
Technology (MIAT), the GLIAC will feature many aviation employers
who are potentially hiring pilots, maintenance technicians, and
other fields within the aviation industry.
"The career fair will open the conference to aviation students
and others who are curious about opportunities in the aviation
industry," said Phil Tartalone, Chair of the Planning Committee and
Eastern Michigan University Aviation Program Coordinator. "The
potential employment options will be outstanding."
This will be the seventh year for the conference. The dates are
set for February 2-3, 2007.
