Senior ATM buyers congregated in Amsterdam to conduct business

ATC Global played host to a wide range of international ATM buyers, with a marked increased in buyer seniority – a rise of 5% in the number of Presidents, Directors and Senior Managers.

The 2013 event also saw the return of the VIP Hosted Buyer Programme which this year welcomed senior ANSP procurement personnel from 17 countries. As part of the programme, the ATC Global team facilitated over 400 meetings with exhibitors and these buyers alone represented in excess of $700million in planned investment.

The event also continued to attract the full spectrum of ATM sectors including notable increases in representations from airports, airlines and the military.

“ATC Global was a great success for us. The success is related to the critically important Hosted Buyer Programme. The qualification of our visitors proved to be beneficial for both parties. Intelcan is looking forward to continuing its support to, and presence at, ATC Global 2014”, commented Amanda Ellis, Director, Intelcan.

Sylviane Lust, Director General of IACA said; “We work in an industry with a lot of slogan and communication. Here [at the ATC Global conference] we have the chance to show figures and really to have a reality check from our point of view, I believe it is always important to convey that message.”
