Industry Affairs Committee

 

Industry Affairs Committee Chairman: Oliver Evans, Swiss International Airlines

Mission:

The Industry Affairs Committee is the channel through which a substantial portion of TIACA's purpose and goals is implemented. The Committee's primary role is to establish TIACA as the principal representative of the air cargo industry and its activities around the world. It seeks to have the association's views professionally represented within the industry, with related enterprises, with global business entities, with governments and with world trade organizations. The Committee promotes the critical issues of the industry identified by TIACA. It formulates TIACA's positions and policy responses and seeks ways to identify and address potential problems before they reach the crisis stage. It explores new ideas and innovative concepts to advance world trade as it relates to air logistics. The Industry Affairs Committee has targeted three major industry issues as priorities: security, customs and performance standards, and the environment.    

 

Policy recommendations for consideration by the Committee are developed at the subcommittee level by specialists in each one of the three focus areas:
