Hello ISTAT Members,
I hope this issue of Jetrader finds you nice and relaxed after the summer.
ISTAT hosted several successful activities over the summer and into October
with the Farnborough International Airshow Reception, ISTAT Chalet and ISTAT
Europe 2014 in Istanbul, Turkey.
The ISTAT Europe 2014 conference in Istanbul proved to be a hit with a record
attendance of more than 1,100. Wow! It appears that attendance at ISTAT Europe
will soon be matching that of ISTAT Americas. It was a pleasure seeing so many
members there, and the networking looked very productive during the conference. We received a lot of positive feedback on the location of the conference.
As the crossroads between Europe and Asia, Istanbul proved to be a dynamic
city full of life. Special thanks to the conference co-chairs for their dedication
and hard work.
It was good to see the mood of the industry upbeat in Istanbul, and you
can be sure that the ISTAT board is working hard to come up with new features
for the conferences and other events to match this mood. I am confident the
upcoming events will have the ISTAT sizzle that all of you expect!
We look forward to another great event 8-10 March 2015 as we return to
Phoenix, Arizona, for ISTAT Americas. We at ISTAT are looking forward to seeing
everyone at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge and are working hard to provide a
quality conference that has been an ISTAT hallmark.
See you all on the road.
Best,
