John Frangos to Speak at CASEA 2018

On June 26, 2018, John Frangos, a consultant in Tilleke & Gibbins’ dispute resolution department, will deliver a workshop on the legal considerations relevant to aircraft leasing business operators and aircraft lessees in Thailand as part of the Civil Aviation South East Asia Summit in Bangkok.

John’s presentation will give attendees a crucial grounding in the legal pitfalls and priorities of aircraft leasing as part of a broader forum for civil aviation industry professionals, from ASEAN and beyond, to connect and share knowledge about the opportunities and challenges facing the whole industry. The event particularly focuses on matters related to investment, transformative technologies, and key market trends, as well as on Thailand’s Eastern Economic Corridor project, with other aviation industry speakers including the Director General of the Thai Civil Aviation Authority, executives from several leading global airlines, and key decision makers from companies involved in major aviation infrastructure projects across ASEAN.

The event takes place on June 26 and 27 at the Pullman Bangkok Grande Sukhumvit and will host over 150 attendees from all sectors of the aviation industry. To find our more, and to register to attend, please visit the CASEA website.
