Event
ATM Transformation Conference
From vision to implementation: How to prepare what’s next
EUROCONTROL is delighted to invite you to join our ATM Transformation Conference taking place on 6 November 2025, at our Brussels HQ.
As the aviation industry embraces rapid innovation and transformation, managing change in air traffic management (ATM) has become a top priority for aviation leaders. With the 2025 European ATM Master Plan now endorsed, stakeholders are under increasing pressure to accelerate their modernisation efforts and make critical strategic decisions — many with significant financial implications.
From daily trade-offs to long-term planning, decision-makers must navigate complex challenges to ensure a smooth transition from today’s systems to the architecture of the future.
The ATM Transformation Conference will bring together ATM and non-ATM stakeholders to:
- discuss what is coming next
- share stakeholder stories on best practices for managing change
- explore how enterprise architecture can guide effective transformation
- chart the path forward for modernising the European ATM system.
The event will also feature a dedicated exhibition hall, showcasing flagship projects that highlight innovative approaches to ATM transformation and architectural design.
Our objectives are to:
- promote best practices in ATM change management
- raise awareness of the value of enterprise architecture across the aviation ecosystem
- showcase existing capabilities in supporting stakeholders with ATM transformation
- build a vibrant community of practice and foster cross-sector collaboration
Join us as we move from vision to implementation — and shape the future of European ATM together.
