Continuing to build on momentum established in the event’s first three years, ISTAT members gathered in Lima, Perú, for the ISTAT Latin America Forum on 14-15 November, which marked the event’s first trip to Perú.

At the conference, representatives from key regional airlines, appraisers, financiers and manufacturers enjoyed keynote presentations from:

  • Eduardo Fairen, Chief Executive Officer, Viva Air Perú;
  • John Rodgerson, Chief Executive Officer, Azul S.A. and;
  • John Slattery, President and Chief Executive Officer, Embraer.

The event also was packed with panel discussions centering on industry issues specific to the Latin American market and numerous networking opportunities.

Held in seven locations across the globe — Dublin, London, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Shanghai and Tokyo — more than 2,200 members and guests gathered to reconnect with their peers and create new relationships with industry newcomers. This attendance figure is significant in that it represents the largest collective event in ISTAT's history.
