EBACE 2008 spools up

The annual European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE) is set to continue its seemingly relentless growth when it reconvenes in Geneva’s Palais d’Expositions (Palexpo) from May 20 to 22. High on the 2008 conference agenda are serious concerns about access to airports and to the U.S. generally, as well as pending new security requirements and possible environmental restrictions.

Some 14,000 visitors are expected to attend the 2008 EBACE, and if this is achieved it will represent almost a 25-percent increase on the 2007 total of 11,273. They will be able to visit at least 423 exhibitors (almost a 20-percent hike on last year) and these companies have now filled all of Palexpo’s Halls Six and Seven and close to three quarters of the show’s original Hall 7 (which now also houses a media enclave).
