Uniting the world’s aviation community at a crucial time

The 22nd Annual GHI Conference is scheduled to arrive on time, on schedule in Copenhagen on 30 November-3 December.

We will strive to unite the world’s aviation community for the first time since the coronavirus crisis to advance a blueprint for recovery in 2021.

Because more than 75% of stakeholders said it was important to the aviation community that GHI goes ahead with this year’s conference.

Following huge upheaval – there’s never been a more important time to re-engage in person with your network and plan for growth in 2021.

GHI has been working closely with the aviation community to shape a successful Annual Conference in a challenging year. To read more about our manifesto for the Conference and how we are adapting the event to your feedback, please click here

Denmark is open for business

Here’s some reasons not to miss it:

NOTHING BEATS FACE-TO-FACE: Zoom/Teams video calls have been an essential tool during lockdown. But, nothing beats the real thing! Physical attendance also paves the way to ad-hoc networking, which online platforms can’t match

FIND BUSINESS SOLUTIONS TO COMBAT COVID-19: Enjoy practical, case study-led advice from industry leaders that can help you achieve operational efficiency, safety and drive profitability post pandemic. This year’s conference seminars will provide best practice advice on topics including: recovering the costs of Covid-19; automation; airline:handler relations; flexible SLAs; ramp safety strategies; cleaning, santisation and social distancing measures.

SAVE MONEY: 2019 attendees estimated an average saving of €16,899 – that’s a six times payback on the cost of our standard delegate fee – by meeting their suppliers under one roof through GHI’s premium networking services. Flexible payment options available to help you with cashflow

DISCOVER NEW BUSINESS: 72% of 2019 delegates generated a business lead from the conference, which is packed with high quality networking opportunities with airlines, handlers, airports and suppliers

"The best organised aviation event of the year with a very responsive on site team. I’m all Zoomed out and will be delighted to have the benefit of in person meetings picking up on body language and non-verbal signals with customers and hope to be customers too"

Keith Purdom, aviation consultant with Rsmart

"There are many things you can do via video conferencing facilities and it’s clear that these facilities have been the saviour of many business during lockdown. However, deals are done by people with other people. The next few months are likely to be the most commercially dynamic ever for the industry and the GHI annual event gives us the platform we need to make those deals in a safe environment."

Nick Yeadon, CEO, Air Dispatch

"I am fully supporting the event which is crucial for our daily business and even more today with the Covid situation. It helps the entire airline industry to connect each other, to better understand the situation and to tackle all together as one team the emerging issues in front of us. Face-to-face interaction is an invaluable opportunity."

Christophe Deloux, International Procurement Manager, Air France

"GHI has been for years one of the major events of our industry. The networking experience is a unique opportunity to meet likeminded people and industry experts. It is a place where individuals with experience from various backgrounds meet and exchange ideas whilst creating a professional network."

Panos Nicolaidis, Ground Operations Director, Aegean Airlines

"The Annual GHI Conference is an extremely important conference for our industry. The relationships that are started or continued as a result of the conference last for years and help our airline partners to understand who we are. While Covid-19 has had an unprecedented impact on our industry, now is an even more important time to host this event as the landscape of the industry changes before us."

Carm Borg, President & CEO, Global Aviation Services

"The GHI Annual Conference is one of the most effective sectoral gathering for all aviation organisations. Attending this conference has been always a great pleasure for Çelebi Aviation and been great opportunity to meet other companies and get latest sectoral updates, news and developments. Unlike previous years, our world is experiencing challenging, tough times. It is crucial to unite and become stronger than ever."

Thomas Konietzko, Global Sales and Marketing Executive Vice President, Celebi Aviation
