WHAT IS CIAC?

THE ATLANTIC AEROSPACE EPICENTER

The Canary Islands International Aerospace Congress (CIAC) is the great global meeting point where technological vanguard, scientific research, and the new New Space industry converge.

Our mission is to consolidate the Canary Islands as a strategic tri-continental hub (Europe, Africa, and America), boosting synergies between the public sector, the business community, and academic talent.

CIAC is a living ecosystem designed to define the future of space, promote dual-use technologies, and guarantee a sustainable deployment of the new air mobility.

01

Aeronautics and Space

Development of constellations, payloads, and Earth observation systems from a privileged latitude and unique infrastructures.

02

New Mobility (U-Space)

Integration of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), vertiports, and the future of the Single European Sky adapted to our environment.

03

Talent: From Classroom to Orbit

Fostering local talent, knowledge transfer, and creating opportunities for the future generations of the aerospace sector.

THEMATIC AREAS

CONGRESS TRACKS

These five tracks will configure a comprehensive platform for dialogue and collaboration among industry leaders, researchers, institutional managers, and the new generations of professionals in the aerospace sector.

01
