Here’s why the industry chooses APEX FTE Asia Expo – Asia’s most trusted aviation innovation event

Delegate and exhibitor testimonials

“There is so much taking place in the Premium Conference and on the Expo Stage that I wish I could be in two places at once. In the exhibition, it’s great to see the improvements in technology and what’s new in the market. It’s also an opportunity to meet with my customers, clients and suppliers here in one location in Singapore. The attendees are right in the markets that we are interested in. I look forward to coming back next year.”

Andrew Tan, Director and Head Airport Operations, Changi Airports International

“The event is very good and very beneficial to airlines. The conference speakers have been real experts sharing their insights. Meanwhile, in the exhibition there are many IT and service infrastructure providers, so it’s very beneficial for new ideas.”

Ronny Lau Nga Lok, Assistant to Vice President, Customer Services cum General Manager – Service Development, Air Macau

“It has been amazing. Connectivity and personalisation are two of our key objectives for 2023 and we’re seeing so much of it here at the expo, which has been so great for us. We’re really grateful that we had the privilege to come here. We’ve already decided to attend next year.”

Andre Viljoen, Managing Director & CEO, Fiji Airways

“APEX FTE Asia Expo has been fantastic – it has been incredibly stimulating, with lots of great ideas, interesting people and fantastic talks, so there’s really a lot to take home and think about. The exhibition has had some fantastic suppliers and a lot of companies I didn’t know before. I’m already looking forward to coming back next year.”

Jonathan Good, Chief Technology & Marketing Officer, Auckland Airport

“It is always a pleasure to exhibit at FTE APEX Asia Expo. We always find a good mix of customers, partners and companies from the entire travel ecosystem here, so all in all we are very satisfied. The quality of attendees is super top-notch – all of the decision-makers from airports, airlines and government agencies are here. It has been an amazing event and we will definitely come back again next year.”

Gaurav Gupta, Global Head of Sales, Travel and Transport, IDEMIA Public Security:

“It has been a great audience at FTE APEX Asia Expo, with a lot of visitors from different dimensions in the aviation business, especially airports and airlines from many countries. The conferences have made the event even more fruitful. We will definitely be back again next year.”

Aziz Can Aksoyek, Business Development Director, TAV Technologies:

“We have had a really good experience at FTE APEX Asia Expo this year. It is great to connect with airlines in the region and have conversations with our customers and prospective customers. It has also been really nice to share ideas on the conference stages and listen to ideas that the airlines have about how we can work together to make the industry better. The networking, as always, has been fantastic – it is great to have the opportunity to connect with people in a more social setting.”

Ben Asmar, Vice President, Products & Strategy, Safran Passenger Innovations:

“FTE APEX Asia Expo is a very high-quality event. Many of the airports we wanted to approach came to our booth and we had very productive discussions. We were also pleased to have some unexpected prospects come to our booth and show interest in our product.
