The European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) has unveiled its conference agenda for the 2025 European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE).
Set across three new stages – Flight Daily News Live, AIROPS and Innovation – the conference will deliver bespoke content for all areas of the business aviation community, featuring a variety of speakers, panel discussions and interactive sessions.
“2025 marks a turning point for EBACE and we’re excited to offer an elevated experience for the entire business aviation community,” said Robert Baltus, chief operating officer at EBAA. “Our improved conference agenda will take a refreshed format, delivering actionable content across three new stages, while tackling the topics that matter most to our members.”
New for 2025, Flight Daily News Live will host a mix of pre-arranged panels and “fireside chats” with industry experts on themes such as the public perception of business aviation and sustainability. Additionally, each morning of the show, Flight Global’s journalists will dissect the latest breaking news stories.
Following the integration of EBAA’s AIROPS conference, the AIROPS stage will deliver in-depth sessions focused on flight operations topics such as regulation, security and safety. Example speakers include Simon Shinn, assistant director of operations at NetJets; David Mumford, international flight ops specialist at OPS Group; and Paul Tiba, managing director at AIRLEC Ambulance.
The Innovation stage will explore the developments shaping the future of business aviation. Split into two segments – Innovation and Sustainability – the stage will feature sessions on AAM, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), sustainability and compliance, and other key technologies. Confirmed speakers include Puja Mahajan, CEO and founder of Azzera; Maureen Gautier, European programme manager at 4AIR; and Bruce Parry, senior advisor, corporate affairs at Bombardier; with more to be confirmed.
“Alongside our dedicated stages, we’ll be hosting more general sessions on the charter market, aircraft sales, and maintenance, throughout the conference,” said Baltus. “With something for everybody at EBACE, there really is no other place in Europe to experience this standard of market intelligence.”
EBACE25 will take place on 20-22 May at the Palexpo at Geneva Airport, Switzerland. The full conference agenda will be available on the EBACE website in the coming weeks.
