This program is designed to promote the exporting of aviation/airport related North American products and services by providing direct contacts and meaningful dialogue between aviation-related companies and key airport/aviation officials in the region.

As in past years, key aviation officials from throughout the region will participate in the conference, including representatives from Austria, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovak Republic and the Ukraine. In addition, U.S. Commercial Service officers from U.S. embassies throughout the region also will be in attendance.
