APEX TECH returns in 2026 with an evolved format that continues to foster collaboration, inclusivity, and deeper engagement across the airline and passenger experience tech ecosystem.

Building on the success of 2025, we’re bringing back our interactive workshop format and speed networking sessions — both designed to spark more dynamic, real-time exchange between attendees, experts, and airlines.

What to Expect in 2026:

This year’s APEX TECH will continue to focus on the critical technologies shaping aviation today — and tomorrow — while diving deeper into real-world airline use cases, passenger experience applications, and commercial opportunities. You’ll hear directly from leading voices across the industry, participate in hands-on sessions, and collaborate with peers in new ways.

Core Focus Areas:

  • Inflight Connectivity (IFC)
  • Media Content & Supply Chain
  • Data Capture & Intelligence
  • Ancillary Revenue & Passenger Experience Use Cases

Session Topics Include:

  • The Latest in IFC: Is LEO going to eat everyone’s lunch?
  • Redefining the IFC Experience: Portals, performance, and personalization driving the next wave of airline revenue and loyalty
  • Edge Caching & Streaming: Examining supply chain tech, standards, business models, and technical implications
  • Non-Theatrical Content Licensing: Adapting to new models and technologies shaping onboard content delivery
  • Thinking Bigger: Exploring emerging onboard tech use cases like advertising, e-commerce, and more

Don’t miss the chance to be part of the conversations — and the innovations — shaping the next era of passenger experience.
