The GSE&RAMP-OPS Global event is back! Following a successful meeting at our last European show in Dubrovnik, we will bring industry leaders together again, enhancing and improving relationships between buyers, users, and suppliers of ground support equipment. This time in the beautiful city of Seville on the 19th – 21st June 2023
This southern Spanish capital is famous for its historic churches and palaces, the birthplace of flamenco dancing; Barrio de Triana, and mudejar architecture. Whether you’re interested in tapas or history, there’s no chance you’ll get bored in this mesmerising Andalusian city.
The GSE&RAMP-OPS Global event will be host to over 40 exhibiting ground support equipment suppliers, IT companies and the latest ramp innovators, coming from across the globe to showcase their outstanding products and services with bespoke capabilities to suit even the toughest ground handling requirements.
At the GSE&RAMP-OPS Global event, you can meet with decision makers in a professional capacity during pre arranged 1-2-1 meeting sessions, allowing for in-depth conversations and the opportunity to connect with industry peers. As informal networking is so vital, we are pleased to include a welcoming reception and networking dinner during the event, to promote relaxed and personal connections.
Alongside the opportunity to source new and used ground support equipment and technologies, there will be an inspiring conference where delegates will listen to and question a carefully selected line-up of speakers from all around the world. The conference will cover trending industry topics, such as: Preventing Aircraft Damage – Ramp Training – New Technologies and Innovations – eGSE targets – Airport Infrastructure – GSE Pooling – Autonomous GSE – Ramp Safety – Industry Standardisation – IATA IGOM Portal – Recruitment and Retaining Staff – Industry Success Stories.
