European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation

EUROCONTROL is an international organisation founded in 1960 and composed of Member States from the European Region, including the European Community which became a member in 2002.  We are involved in almost every aspect of air traffic management, in close cooperation with our stakeholders.

Our main activities

• The Maastricht Upper Area Control Centre provides an air traffic control service for the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and northern Germany. 
• The Central Route Charges Office handles billing across Europe. 
• The Network Manager has built on the role of the former Central Flow Management Unit and now proactively manages the entire ATM Network (with nearly ten million flights every year), in close liaison with the air navigation service providers, airspace users, the military and airports.
  It is now using its experience to develop the Centralised Services initiative, which will open up some services to market competition at a Pan-European level, generating significant savings and operational efficiencies.
• We support the European Commission, EASA and National Supervisory Authorities in their regulatory activities. 
• We are actively involved in research, development and validation, including a substantial contribution to the SESAR Joint Undertaking.  However our efforts are not limited to SESAR but rather are focused on delivering tangible results which will improve the ATM system performance in the medium and long term.
• We have a unique approach to civil-military aviation coordination in Europe .

We have over 2000 highly qualified professionals spread over four European countries, who make sure that the appropriate expertise and resources are deployed to address ATM challenges. See what our scope of expertise covers.

EUROCONTROL will be Exhibiting at ATC Global 2014 in China, Stand: A324

As the largest, most comprehensive event of its kind, ATC Global has set the standard for air traffic management events worldwide. Having previously attracted over 5,500 industry professionals from 116 countries, the 24th year of the event will see it move to China, the fastest growing aviation market in the world. 

From its new location, ATC Global will continue its successful independently-focused European-based legacy by providing a focal point and annual meeting place for equipment buyers, users and suppliers from across the globe. The 3 day event is comprised of a large scale exhibition showcasing products and services from international suppliers, a prestigious thought leadership conference, an extensive educational programme and unparalleled networking opportunities.

ATC Global is much more than just a place to network and exchange knowledge, information and expertise; it is the place to do business and the place to meet new and existing customers. ATC Global is organised by market leading international events organiser, UBM, and the event will be shaped by close collaboration with industry stakeholders and input from ATMB/CAAC. – See more at: http://www.atcglobalhub.com
