The inaugural Future Opportunities for Seaplanes and Amphibious Aviation (FOSAA) conference debuts in Venice, Italy, on March 20, 2024. Organized by Quaynote Communications and Arena Group Associates, the event extends from the successful Future Opportunities For… series, which, over fifteen years, covered Superyachts, Business Jets, and Aviation Health.
This one-day event serves as a dedicated platform for the amphibious and seaplane industry to explore technological advancements that enhance their attractiveness, efficiency, and environmental friendliness. It also identifies opportunities to integrate regional and local amphibious operations into the global air transport network.
The FOSAA conference targets professionals involved in the commercial potential of amphibious and seaplane sectors. An esteemed group of speakers representing operators, infrastructure, financiers, service providers, and industry experts will discuss various topics, including operations, infrastructure needs, sector economics, sustainability, and customer experience.
Lorna Titley, Quaynote director, emphasizes, “We aim to facilitate knowledge sharing, address challenges, and highlight successes to optimize the industry’s potential for the future.” The positive feedback underscores the demand for FOSAA.
With advancements in electric propulsion and sustainable initiatives, amphibious aviation experiences a resurgence that could reshape the sector’s possibilities. The diverse range of sponsors, including zero-emission OEM Jekta, electric seaplane developers Elfly, and keynote presenter Max Pinucci, CEO of MBVision, highlights the industry’s potential.
Stacey Giglio, VP of Marketing for Satcom Direct, a lead sponsor, notes, “This event explores how amphibious aviation can bridge connectivity issues for communities living around water, adding a vital link to the global air transport network. We’re thrilled to be part of such an innovative event.”
