The inaugural World Data Symposium is set to take place in Dublin, Ireland. This event aims to gather leading experts in aviation to explore the role of data, technology, and cybersecurity within the industry.

Kim Macaulay, IATA’s Chief Information and Data Officer, stated: “By convening aviation’s leading experts to explore the impact and potential of data, technology, and cybersecurity in aviation, the IATA World Data Symposium is establishing itself as the must-attend event. With WDS, we are creating a vital opportunity to take stock of how digitalization is driving change across every element of the airline industry. And by sharing our collective experiences, we will all be stronger.”

Lynne Embleton, CEO of Aer Lingus, emphasized the transformative impact of data and technology on various sectors: “Data and technology are revolutionizing how we operate in many aspects of our lives, and the aviation industry is no different. The pace and scale of change enabled by digital over the last five years has surpassed anything from the previous 20 years. We are able to better understand our customers, optimize our processes, and use data to drive better decisions in real time. Yet what we have seen to date is only the tip of the iceberg. The applications of emerging technologies like AI, machine learning and robotics are still at an early stage and will continue to drive real changes in the aviation industry.”
