I have a great pleasure and an honour to take part to "The Sustainable Airport Areas Conference" as one of the moderators. The purpose for SAAIC is to exchange ideas, to share best practices and to debate about the Sustainable development of airports and airport areas. The inspiring topic of the 2024 Conference is “What does Sustainability mean for airport areas in 2024, in a world shaped by recurrent crises, with an air transport industry increasingly digitalized, facing the challenge of decarbonization and preparing for the AI revolution?”. An exceptional array of 60 panelists coming from China, from Asia, from Europe and from North America join the Conference, an outstanding opportunity to learn from best experts in the field and to create many occasions of networking. The panelists will debate on 4 topics : Panel 1: In 2024 what kind of strategic industries can be attracted and/or (re)located in airport areas in order to boost their competitiveness and resilience? Panel 2 : How deeply will airports be transformed by automation, digitalization and, in the future, by AI ? What consequences on employment in airport areas? Panel 3: Advanced Air Mobility is not anymore an utopia but a tangible reality. What is the current situation all over the world? What will the use-case scenarios? How could airport areas really benefit from Advanced Air Mobility? Panel 4: How are airport areas adapting to foster their attractiveness for residents and employees in a post-Covid world facing the challenge of decarbonization? https://lnkd.in/ezu956jh Vantaan kaupunki - Vanda stad - City of Vantaa CEEVO - L' Agence de Développement et d'Attractivité des territoires du Val-d'Oise Jean-Francois Benon Elisabeth Le Masson Carol Zhang Pieter van der Horst Pekka Timonen Maria Krylova #aviation #airport #SAAIC #conference #Daxing #airportcity #sustainable #netzero
