AFA Spotlight

Aerospace Forum Asia (AFA) is a regional non-profit association of industry professionals dedicated to advancing appreciation of the overwhelmingly positive societal role of civil aerospace.
Established in 1986 in Hong Kong as an informal meeting group, AFA today plays a unique role around Asia as a multipurpose rallying point. Membership is by invitation and provides high level business insights and access, together with value adding advocacy activities.
The Forum has since 1998, raised over US$350,000 for aviation related charities – particularly ORBIS, the flying eye hospital, via its innovative Aerospace Auction, and charity initiatives.
