Two Organizations Will Hold Consecutive Meetings In February In
Savannah
NATA and the NBAA have announced plans to coordinate NATA's
2011 FBO Leadership Conference, taking place February 7-8, 2011,
with NBAA's Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference, being held
February 9-11, 2011. Both meetings are being held in in Savannah,
GA.
The organizations said in a news release during the NBAA annual
meeing in Altanta that the synchronization of these two events
provides the associations' members "unparalleled networking,
marketing and educational opportunities, in one place, at one
time." Under the plan, attendees will still be required to register
for each event separately, through the traditional NBAA and NATA
avenues.
NATA's FBO Leadership Conference was developed for leading
executives and managers of fixed base operations, and features
nationally recognized experts who provide the latest intelligence,
tactics and strategies to maximize NATA member FBOs' business
success. This year's event includes sessions on the industry
economic outlook, airport minimum standards, future of aviation
gasoline, shared aircraft ownership, general aviation security and
Safety 1st initiatives. The conference's opening leadership session
features NATA President and CEO James K. Coyne and NBAA President
and CEO Edward M. Bolen. The concluding session on maximizing your
time at the Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference provides a
smooth transition into one of NBAA's premier events.
NBAA's Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference is the industry's
leading annual event for providing timely and valuable information
on the topics, trends and challenges facing the professionals
responsible for coordinating the use of business aircraft. The
conference includes hundreds of exhibits from aviation products and
services providers.
"NATA and NBAA realized enormous success with this coordinated
approach in 2010," said Coyne. "NATA experienced a 50-percent
increase in FBO Leadership Conference participation, while NBAA
recorded the third highest attendance in the history of the S&D
Conference."
"Our industry works best when it works together," said Bolen.
"NBAA is pleased to be working with NATA to ensure that, this
February, Savannah will be the place to be for aviation
professionals."
