Believing in the future, relying on constant performance improvement to build a better world! This voluntarist and positive act of faith in humanity's ability to surpass and reform itself by finding sustainable and effective solutions has been the motto of aviators since the first steps in the conquest of the air. It's hardly surprising, then, that the motto of the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale, created in 1905 at the request of the international sports movement, "Faster, higher, farther", should resonate with a society which, dreaming of planetary fraternity, invented Esperanto and believed in progress in the service of humanity.

The Paris Air Forum Scientific Advisory Board shares the conviction that only disruptive innovation that reconciles environmental urgency with the imperative of development will effectively meet the expectations of all the peoples of our planet. The aerospace industry's ongoing efforts in all fields will help us to find solutions to the challenges facing humanity. In a year when the world will be thrilled by the exploits of men and women in the world of sport, our Board of Directors has chosen to express this vision of solidarity and innovation by naming the 11th edition of the Paris Air Forum "Avenir & Performance" (Future & Performance).
