The Insight Theatre series of special presentations and panels will make its first appearance at the Aviation AFRICA 2024 this year, bringing experts from leading organisations from across Africa and further afield to the event.

The Aviation AFRICA Exhibition & Summit 2024 is being held at the Sandton Convention Centre in Gauteng, South Africa on 16 & 17th September 2024.

The Insight Theatre adds another dimension to the wide-ranging content available to the 1,500+ delegates heading to the event in South Africa and will run alongside the high-level Summit that is a cornerstone feature of Aviation Africa.

According to Alan Peaford, Aviation AFRICA Summit Chair: “With the launch of the Insight Theatre we are delighted to welcome more speakers and to offer several panel sessions giving the ability to tackle an increased number of critical and interesting subjects.

“There are so many vital topics that need to be addressed in the African air transport market the need for the Insight Theatre to accompany the Summit has become clear, and we have been thrilled with the take-up from organisations wanting to air their story at Aviation AFRICA,” said Peaford.

Confirmed speakers include Simon Knechtli, Executive Director Aerospace, WTW; David Le Roux, Key Accounts Manager, PilotInsure; Will Jones, Regional Sales Manager, Satcom Direct; and Gavin Kiggen, Vice president ExecuJet Africa & President –Aircraft Sales and Acquisitions, Luxaviation Group.

There will also be several panels on subjects as diverse as aviation sustainability; the future workforce; ground handling; and safety.

The Insight Theatre sessions are open to all delegates and exhibition hall visitors. “They will take place in the Insight Theatre located on the exhibition floor and offer a fantastic and intimate opportunity for interaction between presenters and delegates,” said Mark Brown, CEO of Times Aerospace Events.

The event is officially hosted by the Government of South Africa and the Ministry of Transport and led by the South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA).

According to Brown of Times Aerospace Events, which organises the event: “With around 1,500 delegates expected to attend Aviation AFRICA in South Africa the event will be our largest ever.”

The Aviation AFRICA Summit & Exhibition is regarded as the continent’s leading annual meeting place for the continent’s commercial air transport industry.

“This is the first time the event has taken place in South Africa, and it comes at an important time as the country recovers and rebuilds from the turbulence of the past few years,” said Brown.
