CEPA announces support of Government departments for this month's Expo

CEPA (Central European Private Aviation) has announced at a press conference in Prague that the Government of the Czech Republic has officially shown its support for the CEPA Expo by confirming the attendance of two Ministries at this year's event. Representatives from the Ministry of Trade and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be present at this month's EXPO being held on 26th-28th November in Prague.

The Expo, which is themed 'connecting business and commercial aviation', will bring delegates and partners from all parts of the industry who want to enhance business and network in the CEE region. CEPA Expo has previously featured panels, guest speakers, topics and delegates from the private aviation sector only, however, this year professionals from the commercial aviation world will be invited to the final day of the conference, with additional discussion panels and workshops entirely dedicated to their part of the industry with a special focus on central and eastern Europe.

Commenting on the support shown by the Czech Government, CEPA founder, Dagmar Grossmann said “We are delighted that the contribution CEPA and the Expo can make to the development of the aviation market in the CEE has been recognised by the support of these two key Ministries of the Czech Government. CEPA is the only organisation of this kind in the CEE and the Expo has grown into a prestigious event that has a real impact. The interest shown by the Government departments responsible for growing business here really demonstrates how far CEPA has come.”

In addition to the attendance of the Ministries, the Expo team have confirmed that representation from the main aircraft manufactures is very strong this year with Gulfstream, Embraer, Cessna, Hawker and Bombardier either sponsoring or speaking at one of the many panel discussions planned during the event.

Delegates this year will also be given the results of the unique research undertaken to establish the aircraft buying habits of the ultra high net worth individual in the central European market.
