2025 Integrated Communications, Navigation and Surveillance Conference
Event Menu
The ICNS Conference, which kicked off in 2001 in Cleveland, Ohio, as a NASA’s Glenn Research Center event that included the FAA and industry, and focused on domestic U.S. CNS activities, has become the leading international aviation event for CNS matters, addressing technology and policy advances in CNS research, development, and implementation programs, as well as policies related to CNS/ATM capabilities and applications.
To mark the growing international dimension of the conference, the ICNS Executive Committee (IEC) has decided, with the invitation of EUROCONTROL and the support of the AIAA Digital Avionics Technical Committee (DATC), to host for the first time since its inception the 25th edition of the ICNS Conference outside the U.S.
To this end, the IEC has agreed to host the conference in Europe’s Aviation House at EUROCONTROL’s headquarters in Brussels, initiating a new era for the conference and underscoring its ever-growing international and global significance. The in-person event will be jointly hosted by EUROCONTROL, the SESAR Deployment Manager (SDM), and the SESAR Joint Undertaking (SJU).
Hosting the conference in Europe will facilitate the participation and active involvement of new participants and bring the conference closer to other major centers of aviation.
