MIU will hold its second VLJ Latin America and Caribbean Conference at the Four Seasons Hotel in Miami on November 10-11, 2008. This event leads the industry in the region and is projected to surpass last year’s number of attendees and sponsors very early on. Oscar Garcia has been elected to Chair again the conference which was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on December 2007. The conference will cover the most relevant aspects of the VLJ, air taxi and private fight business models in the region. Oscar Garcia stated “I am delighted to chair for the second time this prestigious event which is beginning to shape the VLJ sector in more than 37 countries in the region. Moreover, I look forward to developing the initiatives presented last year and introduce new ones based on current industry challenges, such as the oil prices and financing markets."

The conference speakers range from Government decision makers to entrepreneurs. Original Equipment manufacturers to after market software providers and an expense roster of global and regional industry leaders. Oscar will also lead the workshop on November 11th which will focus on a topic intended to provide tools and insights that the attendees can implement and benefit from after returning to their companies. “Last year, we focused on the single engine/pilot versus twin/engine pilot and the results were phenomenal. Some of our attendees actually revised and implemented changes to their plans and strategies which yielded them tangible results within a short period of time” Garcia stated “ I look forward to the workshop as much as to the conference, as it is a tremendous value for all as well as a very interesting and challenging interactive session."
