About the event
The Forum Innovationsflughafen PAD is hosted by Innovationsflughafen PAD, the initiative at Paderborn/Lippstadt Airport that is creating a real-world environment for developing, testing and validating future landside, airside and terminal operations. The October edition takes place in the airport's Quax-Hangar and combines current project updates with time for exchange.
For airport suppliers and technology providers, the forum offers first-hand insight into how new solutions are trialled under live airport conditions, and a compact setting to meet airport management, research institutes and industry partners working on the airport of the future. Paderborn/Lippstadt Airport is one of GATE's partner airports, and GATE will be on site, represented by Kevin Fischer and Miriam Schönrock.
The agenda includes:
Welcome and update on Innovationsflughafen PAD, with District Administrator Christoph Rüther, Roland Hüser (Paderborn/Lippstadt Airport) and Verena Wildenhues (Innovationsflughafen PAD)
