ICAO reflects on its remarkable journey of collaboration and progress while reaffirming its commitment to a safe, sustainable, and connected future.
Highlighting ICAO’s pivotal efforts in driving Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) adoption and implementing the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) — essential steps toward achieving the Long-Term Global Aspirational Goal (LTAG) of Net Zero emissions by 2050. As we look ahead to the ICAO General Assembly in September 2025, this presentation will inspire dialogue, foster collaboration, and align global efforts to meet the challenges of sustainable aviation.
This high-level panel convenes C-Suite executives from across the aerospace sector — including airlines, airports, and manufacturers — who are at the
forefront of driving the industry’s transition to Net Zero emissions.
As global aviation navigates recovery and transformation, these industry pioneers will provide strategic insights into the challenges and opportunities shaping sustainable aviation on both regional and international levels.
The discussion will focus on corporate strategies for achieving Net Zero targets, including advancements in aircraft technology, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) adoption, infrastructure modernisation, and carbon reduction initiatives. Panellists will outline how their organizations are balancing cost efficiency, operational excellence, and sustainability to maintain a competitive edge.
This session offers a forward-thinking outlook on the innovations, strategic collaborations, and leadership required to meet Net Zero goals and ensure a sustainable future for the aerospace industry.
