Must-Attend Conference
The BA-MEETUP is a must-attend network development conference and exhibition for business aviation professionals.
This is the only conference to bring all of the key links in the business aviation sector together under one roof -
Schedulers, Dispatchers, Route Planners, Pilots, Operators, FBOs, Business Airports and other Service Providers.
The focus is on interchange, interaction and participation, rather than on listening to speakers' past experiences.
The result is a proactive platform upon which successful networking can be built, the perfect place for face-to-face
business discussions and comprehensive sector-specific services.
This a conference organised by the business aviation industry for the business aviation industry.
Developed in close consultation with senior executives working in the sector, the event is designed to optimize the
exchange of information, expertise and experiences, and to facilitate targeted networking.
BA-Meetup, more than any other in the conference calendar, will bring the right people together
from the different disciplines of business aviation and stimulate interaction across the sector.
BA-Meetup.com will take place over 2 ½ days at the brand-new Education Centre at the Royal Air Force Northolt Station on
Northolt Airport, only 10 km from London Heathrow Airport, thus a fitting and convenient venue for the world's business
aviation community.

Targetting Change, Progress and Innovation.
"A conference would be just another conference if it isn't unique The BA-Meetup does have a different concept
of conferencing than the usual meetings.
It will stand out simply because it will feature what others don't or can't. It will have its own character and charisma.
It will combine innovation with pragmatism. It will be an event to find solutions. We will even find solutions
for problems that don't exist yet. Strange? No! We can foresee what issues we will be confronted in the future.
It is better to be pro-active and be prepared."
"Especially now that we are in a time of change where the stimulants or turn-ons to fly private seem to be missing,
we have to create and offer turn-ons! Flying smarter and operating smarter will be the motto
of a new era of business aviation"
"In business aviation development, I deal with a wide scope of issues. I need to interact with schedulers
and dispatchers to create awareness or to find out about the reasons why one or the other airport or FBO is preferred.
Or was it the pilot who made the decision? How can I help the operators to find potential clients who may want to
use a charter? I interact with regional agencies that are looking for new investors; in my view every passenger who
arrives on a private or business jet is a potential investor in the region."
"Improvements and new ideas are not necessarily found in the boardroom. I aim to gather people from different backgrounds for this conference and make sure that it each gets the most out
of it by being able to talk to new people and hearing different views. The focus is on interaction, open exchange of
opinions, and networking and finding new ways of cooperation or new services in business aviation."
"My inspiration was NBAA's Schedulers and Dispatchers meetings and similar vertical-community gatherings in the USA.
I attended several of these meetings and I thought, why can't we have something like this in Europe for both Europe and the Middle-East?
It is expensive for European companies to have their aviation professionals travel several times per year to the United
States for their business aviation information and networking. Initiating the BA-Meetup was just a logical step."
