Why attend?
l Hear from the people changing Asia
No other business jet or helicopter market
are changing as fast as Asia. We have seen
rapid growth in China and now southeast
Asia. Asia’s markets are also unlike any
other. For four years our Annual Asian
conferences highlight both the possible
rewards and risks involved in Asia.
l
Meet the Asian market
l
Have fun and save time
Corporate Jet Investor Asia and Helicopter
Investor Asia bring together a unique
group of people that lead and support
aircraft transactions in the region.
Attendees at the events – operators,
manufacturers, financiers, lawyers and
others – are leading the growth of Asia’s
business aviation markets.
You do not have time to visit every key
business aviation hub in Asia. These
conferences bring the key players together
in one hotel, in Singapore. Serious business
aviation conferences do not need to be
boring. With interactive voting, debates,
inquisitive questioning plus lots of relaxed
networking you will enjoy yourself.
