“To date, this is my favourite FTE event that I have participated in. The Diamond Sponsorship has given us fantastic exposure, with many meeting requests via the app, emails, and LinkedIn messages ahead of the event. I love our space here in the exhibition and I love the FTE events. The elevation of exposure with being Diamond Sponsor is something I am very happy with. It has been a great experience. The foot traffic on the exhibition floor has been fantastic. Overall being Diamond Sponsor was a great choice.”

Montee Fiely, Head of Strategic Engagements, Synect

“The overall experience at FTE Global has been really amazing. For Meta, it is the first time we are participating with a dedicated booth and it has been an overwhelmingly positive experience. We had several hundred visitors at the booth, so it was very successful. We will attend FTE Global again next year – it is a great opportunity for us meet a lot of exciting people, do a lot of great demos, and really show what the Metaverse and immersive experiences inflight look like. We highly recommend attending.”

Bastian Schütz, Global Lead, Virtual & Mixed Reality Content Sourcing, Meta

“FTE Global is definitely the best event of the year – it is the best attended, and it has the widest range of people that we like to interact and network with. We have always had good attendance at our booth at FTE Global, and now that we have been acquired by SITA we have experienced even more traffic and engagement. The conferences being on the exhibition floor means we have received a lot of traffic at the booth.”

Jim Houghton, Aviation Business Development, Americas, Materna IPS

“Our experience at FTE Global has been great, with a lot of networking opportunities. What we really like is we are able to meet with many airlines and airports all in a span of two to three days. The number and quality of visitors to our booth has been very good. I like the way FTE sets up the networking events and coffee breaks on the show floor, bringing everyone together. I also appreciate the co-location with APEX/IFSA Global EXPO, making it a larger group. We will definitely come back to FTE Global and the other events FTE has as well.”

Tim McMullen, VP Business Development, Aviation and Travel, Technology, DataArt

This is probably the most unique way of us meeting a lot of people in a short period of time. The ability to meet people at a high level here, who are able to make purchasing decisions, is unrivalled. It is a great way of spending some of our marketing budget and getting a great return. We will definitely be back next year.”

Diego Ferrer, Senior Advisor, Falco Systems

“FTE Global 2022 has been a very good experience. The quality of the attendees and conversations taking place are at a different level altogether. There is no sense of competition – the common theme in all of the conversations is how to collaborate, collectively share experiences, and transform the passenger experience. I see a lot of people being open and helping each other. This is a great networking opportunity in terms of making new connections and having meaningful conversations.”

Amit Sukhija, Founder & CEO, ZestIOT Technologies Pvt. Ltd

“I am a first-time attendee at FTE Global. Having the opportunity to walk the floor, meet all of the other exhibitors, and discuss how we can collaborate in the future has been really something that I enjoyed thoroughly. There has been a steady stream of visitors to our booth. The set-up is really good, being able to have everybody go through the exhibition in order to get to the conference rooms means there has been a very good flow and consistency to the exhibition. The overall networking opportunities are plentiful. There are lots of coffee breaks and opportunities for us to engage with other attendees. I have had phenomenal conversations after some of the breakout sessions. I will definitely attend FTE events in the future.”

Ron Glickman, VP North America, Snowfall

“This is my first time attending FTE Global. There are all sorts of technologies – we have the airlines, we have companies that are providing solutions for the airports, so this really is a great opportunity for us to learn about what is going on in the industry. We have had excellent discussions with people coming to our booth. We have had way more visitors than we were expecting. The networking at FTE Global has been excellent. I think this event is fantastic for the industry as a whole. I clearly see the value in attending – you learn in two days what would take you six months otherwise, because there is so much knowledge in this room right now.”

Vishram Dalvi, Principal, Tech Business Development, Just Walk Out Technology By Amazon

“This is my second year at FTE Global and the experience has been spectacular. The decision-makers have visited the booth to have conversations and it has just been a really good show. We have been busy for the entire two days. I think the important thing here is that the decision-makers attending the event are very high quality. One of the important things about the event is the networking opportunities – we have had good sessions during the evenings and also the coffee breaks, so the booth traffic has been fantastic. I have had the chance to attend a couple of the conference sessions – they are very well-positioned for what we are doing today, but even more importantly they are exploring what the future is bringing. We will definitely be back next year – the quality of attendees and prospects that we have is fantastic.”

Jim Nation, Senior Account Manager, NEC

“It has been an incredible experience here at FTE Global. Last year was my first time attending and it keeps getting better every year.

The conference content is incredible, as it was last year. The social events at FTE Global are wonderful. The quality of visitors to our booth has absolutely met my expectations. 1,000%, we will absolutely be looking to return in 2023 – hopefully bigger and better.”

All of the key airlines, including American, Delta, Frontier and United plus others, have all come by, which is good. You do meet a lot of C-level executives at FTE Global and those are the people who need to get the products agreed within the organisation. One of the good things about this show is there is always a lot of interest from attendees on the technology – they actually all want to understand how it all works and how it all fits together, so it is a good event to show off technology.”

It has been the first time for us attending FTE Global and we are looking forward to attending again next year.”
