Welcome to Swift EuropE

SWIFT (Summer Winter Integrated Field Technologies) is the premier conference and expo for the airport community to gather and learn about innovation in airside operations. 

Each year, conference content is curated by committee members – all senior airside managers from Canadian, European and US airports. SWIFT Europe taps into this expertise enabling direct access for airports outside the Americas.

In 2025 we are in London, Heathrow, from 20-21st May with airfield professionals and supporting vendors with a strong knowledge of airport systems and design.
