15th Annual Avionics International Forum 2026

As the “brain” and “nervous system” of aircraft, avionics serves as a core pillar for ensuring global flight safety and enhancing aircraft operational efficiency. Currently, the global aviation industry is accelerating its recovery. Coupled with the integration of the low-altitude economy into strategic emerging industry layouts in many countries, the accelerated pace of large aircraft industrialization worldwide, and the guidance of the international community’s consensus on green and low-carbon aviation development, the global avionics industry is ushering in a crucial period of strategic opportunities. At the same time, it also faces multiple challenges such as technological innovation breakthroughs, international standard coordination, and cross-regional industrial collaborative development.

At the policy level, governments around the world have intensively introduced supportive policies for the low-altitude economy, generally emphasizing the strengthening of low-altitude flight safety guarantee system construction. The technological maturity and adaptability of avionics systems directly determine the development quality and commercialization progress of the global low-altitude economy. At the technological level, the in-depth integration of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and digital twin with the avionics field has become a trend, driving the accelerated iteration of technologies like intelligent integrated avionics and enhanced vision systems. Meanwhile, the global development of low-altitude aerial vehicles such as eVTOL has put forward unique requirements for avionics systems in terms of lightweight design, high reliability, and low cost. These common industry challenges urgently require collaborative research and solutions from the global avionics community.

Building on the global industry influence accumulated through 14 previous forums, this forum takes “Intelligent Innovation for the Future: Focusing on Avionics Technology Innovation and Ecosystem Upgrading in the 15th Five-Year Plan Period” as its theme. It focuses on core segments such as global aviation policy trends and large aircraft industry development, advanced driver assistance systems and IMA system innovation, low-altitude vehicle avionics technology adaptation, and airborne software and electronic hardware breakthroughs. The forum will gather authoritative avionics experts and leading industry elites from around the world. Through diverse forms such as keynote speeches and thematic seminars, it will interpret global aviation policy orientations, share cutting-edge technological achievements and practical experience, and build an authoritative and professional international exchange platform. This will accelerate the breakthrough of core technologies in the global avionics industry and the transformation of achievements, facilitate the upgrading of the global avionics industry ecosystem, and provide strong support for the development of the global large aircraft industry and the commercialization of the low-altitude economy.
