An Invitation to Military Airlift and Air-to-Air Refuelling 2019
Dear Colleague,
It is with great pleasure that I invite you to participate in the 20th annual Military
Airlift and Air-to-Air Refuelling conference, being hosted in Lisbon by SMi Group
later this year. As industry professionals, we all regard air mobility as a mission
critical priority to enable strategic and tactical reach & this essential gathering
of military and commercial experts will provide the opportunity to promote and
discuss its value in defence.
Today, European Air Forces are striving to deliver the capabilities that are
demanded by the modern operational tempo. Meeting these requirements
demands an evolving approach to our engagement with allied partners
and industry – as seen within the growing successes of international pooling
and sharing efforts and multi-faceted asset development within the dynamic
commercial market.
Within this landscape, there is a clear and present need for vendors, operational
users, equipment & service delivery organisations and research & development
agencies to come together to promote what works and how we can do better.
I hope that this event will identify how cost-effective solutions will continue to
provide the alliance with the warfighting edge required as we move forward.
Having attended this conference for the last ten years, I firmly believe it is
the best one held in Europe and the perfect environment for discussion and
networking. Hence, I am honoured to be able to chair it for the fifth time in a row.
May I ask you to pay particular attention to the conference agenda which
has been put together with great care to give you the very best opportunity
to benchmark and learn from subject matter experts. SMi has invited the most
senior and well-respected Commanders of Air Transport bases, Heads of Air
Mobility organizations and agencies, and this seniority is a demonstration of the
support for this critical meeting.
I am looking forward to meeting you in December in Lisbon with many other
like-minded individuals to ensure you too can benefit from this unique event.
Yours Sincerely,
Laurent Donnet,
Managing Director,

DELEGATE DETAILS
Payment: If payment is not made at the time of booking, then an invoice will be issued and must
be paid immediately and prior to the start of the event. If payment has not been received then
credit card details will be requested and payment taken before entry to the event. Bookings within
7 days of event require payment on booking. Access to the Document Portal will not be given
until payment has been received.
Substitutions/Name Changes: If you are unable to attend you may nominate, in writing, another
delegate to take your place at any time prior to the start of the event. Two or more delegates may
not ‘share’ a place at an event. Please make separate bookings for each delegate.
Cancellation: If you wish to cancel your attendance at an event and you are unable to send
a substitute, then we will refund/credit 50% of the due fee less a £50 administration charge,
providing that cancellation is made in writing and received at least 28 days prior to the start of
the event. Regretfully cancellation after this time cannot be accepted. We will however provide
the conferences documentation via the Document Portal to any delegate who has paid but is
unable to attend for any reason. Due to the interactive nature of the Briefings we are not normally
able to provide documentation in these circumstances. We cannot accept cancellations of
orders placed for Documentation or the Document Portal as these are reproduced specifically to
order. If we have to cancel the event for any reason, then we will make a full refund immediately,
but disclaim any further liability.
Alterations: It may become necessary for us to make alterations to the content, speakers, timing,
venue or date of the event compared to the advertised programme.
