The CEPA Expo, to be held in Prague on 28-30th November, will focus on 'acceleration' and ways of speeding up the processes involved in doing business in the industry. The conference will be analysing ways of bridging communication methods to improve the potential for success in the private aviation market.

Speakers at the event will include Avinode's md Oliver King who will be analysing the status of the charter market; which regions are growing fastest; and providing detailed forecasts for 2013.

Other speakers will include ceo of Atron Nick Fitzpatrick, chairman of Opera Jet Martin Hudec and co-founder of PrivateFly Carol Cork.

A panel led by the Ogilvy's ceo Dita Stejskalova will explore the industry's growing use of social media to interact with clients. The panel will consider whether this new platform strengthens or dilutes luxury brands.

Commenting on this year's conference, CEPA chairman Brendan Lodge says: "The content demon-strates the realistic and focused approach that CEPA has to genuinely aiding private aviation business in central and eastern Europe. The relevant panels and speakers will give delegates the best insight into how to improve their chances of success in this increasingly important part of the world."
