The National Air Transport Association (NATA), T’boli, and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University have announced a new event focused on artificial intelligence in business aviation.
The Inaugural AI Symposium for Business Aviation (AISBA) is scheduled for September 14-16, 2026 at Embry-Riddle’s campus in Daytona Beach, Florida.
The conference will bring together airline executives, operators, technology experts, educators and students to consider how AI tools can be leveraged across the industry, organizers said. Planned discussions will focus on practical applications such as improving efficiency, supporting decision-making, enhancing safety, and supporting workforce development.
Organizers say the event aims to focus on real-world use cases rather than theory, while also addressing the responsibilities and challenges that come with AI adoption. Topics are expected to include implementation strategies, operational considerations, and ethical use of emerging technologies.
The symposium at Embry-Riddle also aims to connect students and industry experts to educate future aviation professionals about how AI is being integrated into business aviation operations.
Registration for the event is currently being accepted. Organizers are also seeking proposals for sponsors and session themes.
