TIACA’s Air Cargo Forum will become an annual event, alternating between Miami and Abu Dhabi, starting in 2025.
The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA) has announced a significant expansion of its Air Cargo Forum (ACF), transforming it into an annual event that will alternate between Miami and Abu Dhabi. The inaugural Middle East edition is scheduled to take place from November 4–6, 2025, on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
Building on the success of the biennial Miami Air Cargo Forum, TIACA’s Board of Directors decided to hold the ACF every year to better serve the global air cargo industry. The event will now rotate between Miami and Abu Dhabi, offering a platform for industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators to discuss the future of air freight.
The ACF 2025 in Abu Dhabi will be organised by TIACA and MGME, with sponsorship from the Department of Culture and Tourism and hosting by Etihad Cargo. The event will highlight industry-leading solutions, cutting-edge technologies, and strategies for addressing global air logistics challenges.
Steven Polmans, Chair of TIACA, stated, “Following the spirit of ACF 2024 in Miami, ACF 2025 will be a world-class event featuring keynote addresses, interactive panels, and an extensive exhibition showcasing the latest in air cargo.”
Stanislas Brun, Vice President Cargo at Etihad Cargo, added, “Abu Dhabi’s strategic location makes it an ideal choice for ACF 2025, offering a dynamic business environment and world-class infrastructure.”
The next Air Cargo Forum will be held in Miami from November 11-14, 2024, with expanded exhibitions and numerous networking opportunities, including a golf tournament and evening receptions. Registration and housing are now open.
