Airport association rebranded; opens office in Riyadh

The ACI Asia-Pacific, a trade association representing 623 airports from 47 countries/territories, has been rebranded as ACI Asia-Pacific and Middle East (ACI APAC & MID) following the launch of its new office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

This shift aims to reflect the regions the association serves, catering to the growing Middle Eastern and Asian airports by customising its programmes. The Middle East office will work closely with its headquarters located in Hong Kong.

Guided by a new vision of “Putting Asia-Pacific and Middle East Airports at the forefront of global aviation,” the ACI Asia-Pacific and Middle East will aim better to position itself in the rapidly evolving aviation market and advocate for the region’s interests on the global stage, said a statement.

The aviation industry in the Middle East has been one of the fastest-growing and most dynamic in the world over the past two decades, driven by factors such as favourable geographic location, government support, and investments in modern infrastructure and technology.

The rebranding aims to recognise the importance of the region and its airports within the integrated structure of the association. The new name aims to more accurately represent the diversity of the airports and aviation markets within the association’s membership, which is important for effective advocacy and representation.
