Tuvoli recently announced the first AI Symposium for Business Aviation (AISBA), co-founded with NATA and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s David B. O’Maley College of Business. The event is scheduled for September 15 and 16 at Embry-Riddle’s campus in Daytona Beach, Florida, with an opening reception on September 14.
A full-day strategic symposium on September 15 at the Henderson Welcome Center makes up the core program, with an optional half-day practical workshop on September 16 at the O’Maley College of Business. The symposium, aimed at business aviation leaders, intends to provide a framework for evaluating and applying artificial intelligence (AI) across the sector.
According to Tuvoli, the program will address AI use cases, strategic considerations, and applied learning across multiple tools and platforms rather than any single product or provider. Sessions will gather operators, brokers, technology developers, regulators, and Embry-Riddle faculty and students to examine applications spanning decision-making, business performance, and customer engagement. The optional workshop features two parallel tracks: one for professionals new to AI and one for more experienced users exploring advanced use cases.
“In partnership with NATA and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Tuvoli created AISBA because this industry deserves a serious, independent forum to examine what AI actually means for how we run our businesses—not a conference about technology for technology’s sake,” said Tuvoli president and CEO Greg Johnson.
Tuvoli, a tenant in Embry-Riddle’s Research Park, has established an endowed scholarship within the O’Maley College of Business. Net proceeds from AISBA above event costs will be directed toward scholarships through the National Air Transportation Foundation.
Registration is open to operators, brokers, FBO professionals, and other industry stakeholders, with complimentary registration for students holding valid identification.
