By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to assess the state of airport investment and privatization in Africa and other regions and get a better understanding of what drives privatization and what investors require to engage.

Retaining existing customers and attracting new ones is the key to growing the business. But in the travel and tourism industry, this can be challenging since leisure travel is highly discretionary and business travel is vulnerable to global external economic factors. As airports, how well do we know our different customers? How well are we meeting their disparate needs? Are there opportunities, in collaboration with other stakeholders in the travel value chain, to increase the value proposition and build more resilience into our business? What can we learn from other industries and recent events? These are some of the questions to be discussed by the Panel.
