NEWCASTLE Airport was represented on the international stage last week at the Future-Proofing Airport Development workshop in Singapore, hosted by the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR).
Bringing together decision-makers from across the Asia-Pacific, the two-day forum focused on how airports can leverage next-generation technology to deliver operational excellence, sustainable growth and an enhanced passenger experience.
In attendance for the airport was Burcak Sezer GAICD, Executive General Manager People Communications.
Ms Sezer showcased how Newcastle Airport’s strategic growth and evolution, driven by a $250 million airport expansion including runway works and international terminal capacity, is unlocking new global connections and opportunities for the Hunter region.
“Forums like this are vital for regional airports,” Ms Sezer said.
“They allow us to share our learnings, strengthen international collaboration and ensure airports of all sizes are part of the global conversation on technology, sustainability and resilience.”
Newcastle Airport CEO Linc Horton said the forum was an opportunity to showcase the region’s growth mindset.
“Being invited to share our story with global airport leaders highlights how far we’ve come and the value we’re creating for our region,” Mr Horton said.
