The GAD World Conference (Global Airport Development), established in 1994, ranks among the leading international trade fairs and specifically addresses the challenges and opportunities of the global airport industry. The conference takes place annually at various international locations, allowing each host country to showcase its local innovations and advancements. Organized by Informa Group Limited, a global leader in events and publications, this conference enhances the networking and exchange of current trends and technologies within the industry.
Key topics at GAD World include airport investments, the management of ESG metrics, privatizations, and public-private partnership projects. Discussions also cover macro trends such as geopolitical developments and the global economic context. A special focus is placed on financing capacity expansions and decarbonization projects, as well as the latest financing trends, including green finance.
Additionally, strategies for sustainable airports are discussed, such as enhancing customer satisfaction, deploying innovative technologies, and digital transformation. New revenue sources beyond traditional flight operations and strategic opportunities in urban air mobility and real estate development are also central themes.

It also serves as an opportunity for operators, investors, and regulatory authorities to network and exchange knowledge.
