SESSION OVERVIEW
This talk investigates how innovations in the airport business model and in urban planning practices are driving the growth of airport real estate and airport-led urban development projects. Drawing on research conducted at more than 50 airports around the world, it focuses on the key factors that fundamentally determine these projects’ success or failure. The talk concludes by introducing a customer-focused approach to airport development called Airport Urbanism, or AU.
