• Shortly before the meeting, you will receive a list of questions that we want to address during the brainstorm. You can then think about the answers in advance;
• Think of questions such as: Who are your customers? With which parties do you link at the airport? In which regions are you active? How do you get to work? Where are you in the Airport Development process? What are you looking for to improve your business? How can we make use of each other's contacts at airports; How would you like to participate in trade fairs and trade missions? Which trade fairs/countries are interesting for you? What topics are interesting for national events? What other events do you need? etc.
