The 23rd annual Global Airport Development (GAD) conference will be held on 29 November-1 December 2016, at the Dom Pedro Palace Hotel, Lisbon.
Over the last three decades, GAD has firmly established itself as the one annual event the industry makes sure not to miss. GAD regularly attracts 350+ airport operators, investors and financiers, as well as airlines, regulators and senior executives from banks, consultants and law firms. This includes over 100 airport operators, 50+ airport & operator CEOs & CFOs and 50+ powerful investors, making GAD a great place to meet the best of the global industry under one roof.
GAD focuses on maximizing value in the airport business model. With a 150+ strong speaker faculty covering the latest developments in airport strategy, finance and management, GAD World offers a unique environment in which to learn, network and do business.
Bringing together 500+ attendees for an evening of relaxed networking, the cocktail night on Day One of GAD World is always one of the highlights of the event. This year will be even more special because it will see the return of the GAD Awards, last run at our 20th anniversary conference in 2013. Winners will be selected by GAD World attendees earlier in the day and the results revealed during the evening event.
Moreover, all GAD World 2016 attendees will benefit from membership of GAD Connect, starting 2 weeks before and remaining live during and for 1 week after the event.
