AeroSummit announced today that Tecnam will join the 2026 conference as a major sponsor, serving as the Title Partner for both AeroQuest and the AeroSummit Golf Tournament. Tecnam Managing Director Giovanni Pascale Langer will also join as a panelist to discuss MOSAIC, contributing industry insight to the ongoing discussion around regulatory and training modernization. AeroSummit 2026 will take place May 20–22, 2026, at the JW Marriott Turnberry in Miami.
The partnership reflects Tecnam’s continued engagement with the flight-training ecosystem and its support of industry collaboration focused on strengthening the pilot pipeline and enhancing training quality across all levels.
“At Tecnam, we view ourselves as partners to flight schools, not just manufacturers. AeroSummit provides a unique platform where the business of aviation meets the passion for instruction,” said Giovanni Pascale Langer, Tecnam Managing Director. “We are honored to support this event as a Title Partner because it aligns perfectly with our ethos: innovation, connection, and the sustainable growth of the pilot training community. I look forward to discussing how regulatory advancements like MOSAIC will empower school owners to modernize their fleets and operations.”
“We are pleased to welcome Tecnam into this year’s sponsorship lineup,” said Anthony Geraci, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Stratus Financial and AeroSummit. “AeroSummit’s purpose, to bring unique experiences, networking, business and awareness to the flight school ecosystem, is bolstered by Tecnam’s commitment to AeroSummit. Their leadership in the flight training space is well-known, and we’re excited for the value they will bring to our flight school partners.”
“Tecnam has long been involved in supporting training operations worldwide, and we’re excited to have them participating in multiple parts of the 2026 program,” said Brandon Martini, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Stratus Financial and AeroSummit. “Their presence helps contribute to a well-rounded attendee experience.”
AeroSummit brings together flight-school owners, CFIs, students, operators, OEMs, lenders, and training partners for three days of education, networking, and industry collaboration. The AeroSummit Golf Tournament will open the event on May 20, followed by AeroQuest, the conference’s signature networking reception combined with a silent auction benefiting Aviators for Autism. The next two days include dedicated programming tracks, exhibit hall, and networking for all attendees.
