23 May 2016

Europe’s biggest business aviation event of the year takes place this week in Geneva, Switzerland, as the 2016 European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE2016) runs 24 to 26, May at the Palexpo center and Geneva International Airport.

To stay up-to-date on everything happening at EBACE2016, exhibitors, attendees and business aviation stakeholders can follow the event live on the event’s new Facebook page, through the EBACE Twitter feed, via the EBACE2016 mobile app and on the EBACE website.

“There’s no substitute for seeing EBACE in person, but we hope the photos, videos and articles help convey the excitement of the event to those who aren’t able to attend,” said Jason Wolf, director of internet communications for the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA), the leading association for business aviation in the U.S., which jointly hosts the event with the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA), the leading group for business aviation in Europe.

The EBACE Facebook page launched earlier this month, and has attracted more than 2,500 followers in that time. Through this page, followers can read articles about education sessions and the Opening General Session, learn about awards being presented at the event, view photos and videos from the static display of aircraft and the exhibit hall, and check in to EBACE2016 to let others know you’re in Geneva. View the EBACE Facebook page.

Through the EBACE Twitter feed, which has more than 5,000 followers, learn what education sessions and networking events are happening at a given time. “Attendees and exhibitors are encouraged to use the #EBACE16 hashtag to join the conversation about the event,” Wolf said. Follow the EBACE Twitter feed.

The official EBACE mobile app allows attendees to prepare for the show, enhances their event experience in Geneva and serves as a useful reference all year long. The free mobile app – available for the iPad, iPhone and Android smartphones – includes a full conference agenda, an exhibitor directory with stand locations, company descriptions and product and service categories, an interactive exhibit floor plan of the Palexpo, the ability to create a personal profile visible to other app users and much more.

The EBACE2016 website includes a full exhibitor directory and program schedule to help attendees plan their day. The website will be updated throughout the event with photos, video and reports from Geneva’s Palexpo. Attendees may register online to avoid lines onsite. View the EBACE2016 website.
