About the Rotorcraft Business & Technology Summit
Rotor & Wing International‘s third annual summit, the Rotorcraft Business & Technology Summit is designed specifically to identify and explain new and developing innovations that can help leaders in this industry achieve business and operational goals—whether they run a commercial helicopter outfit, public agency aviation section, rotorcraft and engine manufacturer, equipment supplier or maintenance, repair and overhaul facility.
This year’s day-and-a-half event builds on the success of 2016’s Rotorcraft Technology Summit, which brought together over 80 high-level executives from 40+ global rotorcraft companies. 2017’s summit will expand upon discussions about innovative technologies and trends on the horizon to include strategic insights from major rotorcraft companies and subject matter experts on best practices for bringing new products from the drawing board to operations in the field.
Like the previous two years, The Rotorcraft Business & Technology Summit will leverage Rotor & Wing International’s 50+ year heritage of serving as the leader in providing business intelligence for rotorcraft management throughout the world. As the most authoritative publication in rotorcraft, we will draw on the knowhow and experience of our staff and contributing writers to present an event that gives attendees information they need to enhance their businesses and operations.
