What Our Community Says

Hear directly from the airline, airport, and industry leaders who make APEX FTE EMEA the definitive event for air transport innovation.

It has been very valuable for us to network with our airport partners here at APEX FTE Dublin, as well listening into what the future is going to be bringing us, considering the customer experience and evolution of the airport environment. We also had a chance to meet with some service providers, which may be contributing to our products and offers. So, it’s a great opportunity to meet with stakeholders from the airport environment and exchange ideas. In terms of networking, I think it’s wonderful that we are given the opportunity to set up some catch-up times with the other attendees, and it gives us an opportunity to meet with senior executives of the airports and other companies too. I’m pleased that we’ve been attending APEX FTE Dublin for a long time now and we will hopefully be back again next year.

Özge Bayraktar, European Airport Properties and Relations Manager, Enterprise Mobility

It has been a marvellous and very well organised event, with great speakers and excellent networking. I think it is a very personal show with the opportunity to meet many potential partners. I have really enjoyed it.

Charlotte Posada-Kandel, Manager Ancillary Products, SunExpress

The experience here at FTE EMEA and FTE Ancillary & Retailing has been really great. What I have most enjoyed is the networking opportunities, which have enabled us to make many new connections and will potentially lead to new commercial relationships.

Giovanni Gennaro, Open Innovation Manager, Aeroporti di Roma

The event has been very good, with lots of interesting new companies to talk to. Some of the tech on display is excellent, so I have been delighted to spend time here and hopefully there will be some opportunities for us afterwards with new companies. I would thoroughly recommend attending FTE EMEA and FTE Ancillary & Retailing – it has been very enjoyable, with lots of good new relationships being built here.

Neal McMahon, Chief Operations Officer, Ryanair

It’s been a good few days for us here at APEX FTE Dublin, with excellent networking and the opportunity to discuss our solutions with the airlines and those that are looking at the ancillary products. I’ve actually had the opportunity to attend some of the conference sessions as well and they’ve been very fruitful, with a lot of insight into AI and automation. The social events at APEX FTE Dublin are fantastic – we always get off to a great start with the ‘Ice Breaker’, which is perfect for informal networking. This is our third year attending and we are committed to attending again next year. A big thumbs up for FTE.

Ashley Seed, Chief Commercial Officer, CMAC Group

My overall experience here at APEX FTE Dublin has been very good. It’s a well-balanced event, with great content, well attended, and excellent networking. It’s nice and easy to connect with people here and I have found the networking opportunities fantastic. The social events have been in great venues, really well managed, and we have made a lot of good connections. APEX FTE Dublin is definitely an event I would come back to.
