Initiatives

ACI Asia-Pacific & Middle East and ACI EUROPE organised a pre-conference workshop at the Airports Innovate event in Busan, South Korea in November. The full-day workshop, scheduled on 25th November, focused on essential topics around innovation that included enterprise (airport) 3.0, opportunities and risks of artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicles, robot technologies in airport operations and smart data processing. The agenda of the day included a series of inspiring presentations, panels sessions and breakout group discussions that enabled participants to network and share their experiences.

The workshop was designed to be an interactive and inclusive platform that brings together airport industry professionals, technology providers, regulators, and other stakeholders from different regions. The workshop welcomed hub airports that are successful in the innovation front to share their experiences, but at the same time, encouraged small and emerging airports that are aspired to technological advancements to seek recommendations in addressing their challenges. 

The workshop was a true success that saw over 100 participants from Asia-Pacific, Middle East, Europe and North America, and included experts from airports, start-ups and consultants. 

ACI Aisa-Pacific & Middle East would like to express our sincere gratitude to ACI EUROPE and Korea Airports Corporation for the excellent collaboration that led to the successful workshop
