IFG panels with Jet Aviation, NBAA and PepsiCo
for the ERAU Event
Oscar Garcia joins distinguished panelists from Jet Aviation, NBAA and PepsiCo to expand on Embry-Riddle’s affiliation and interest in Corporate and Business Aviation. “I am very satisfied with the results that this event yielded to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in terms of expanding its academic scope on the Private, Corporate and Business Jets industry sector”, Oscar Garcia states, “This sector generates over $150 Billion to the US - GDP and creates over 100,000 high-paid jobs across the nation”.
On October 23rd, right after the NBAA convention, the NBAA Student Group at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University hosted the first annual Corporate Aviation Forum at the Daytona Beach Campus of the University. The organization meticulously selected a group of outstanding professionals from various parts of the corporate aviation industry as speakers for the panel discussion. The purpose of the panel was bringing awareness of corporate aviation as well as promoting networking opportunities for the attendees. Oscar Garcia, chairman of InterFlight Global, was pleased to share the table of speakers with other industry experts such as Douglas Carr (NBAA), Scott Rose & Larry Hastings (PepsiCo), and Nathan Ross (Jet Aviation).
The discussion was a total success. Attendees were so captivated by the subject that the discussion went longer than expected. The event was followed by a dinner for the speakers, the ERAU - NBAA Group and a few other guests, kindly hosted by PepsiCo.
