Name
Session 17 Panel | After Montreal: Setting the Agenda for Durable Safety Improvement
Date & Time
Thursday, November 12, 2026, 3:45 PM - 4:45 PM
Description

The closing panel will bring the Day 3 conversation to a decision point: what should continue after Montreal, who should lead it, and how progress should be sustained. Senior leaders will consider where Flight Safety Foundation’s convening role can accelerate action, where industry ownership must be clearer, and which commitments are realistic, measurable, and durable. The goal is a focused agenda that protects proven safety disciplines while preparing aviation for the scale, complexity, and disruption ahead.
