Event details

Airspace modernization in Latin America and the Caribbean is reaching a pivotal point. Increasing traffic, space operations, contingency events and diverse technological capabilities are reshaping operational needs nationwide. This high-level panel includes four Air Navigation Service Providers from the region and focuses on building a future-proof airspace infrastructure.

The discussion explores the strategic priorities for the coming decade: implementation of Free Route Airspace, CNS modernisation, digital information exchange, ATFM development, and the integration of drones, VTOLs, and space launches. Panelists will address the ongoing challenge of maturity gaps among ANSPs and the necessity for coordinated investment in personnel, technology, and procedures.

Participants will gain a clear understanding of how leading ANSPs are approaching modernisation, what lessons can be scaled across the region, and how Latin America and the Caribbean are integrating and collaborating for efficient and innovative airspace management.
