Formed in October 2009, IAEMA - The International Airport Equipment Manufacturers' Association - is a group of the world's leading airport equipment manufacturers working together to take back control of industry events and gain a better deal for the manufacturer in tough economic times.

Membership of the association will ensure the major GSE manufacturers retain an authoritative community voice in the industry: a voice from the industry and for the industry.

IAEMA will work towards:

• The rationalisation of international industry events
• Efficient collective bargaining and cost-cutting
• Universal standards for equipment and manufacturing

IAEMA is organising the International Airport Expo, Las Vegas, 2010: a cost effective solution to the problem faced by manufacturers unable to exhibit at the expensive US shows once every year. Embracing the principle of collective bargaining power laid out above, IAEMA has secured a great deal on exhibition space at the world-class Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas.
