7. AIAA New Event Model Conference Changes
New Event Model Goals
Ensure our Institute is relevant to aerospace professionals
Ensure our conferences integrate a spectrum of topics of interest to the profession (technical disciplines, systems, policy, operations, etc.)
Ensure our overall events provide meaningful professional development and interaction opportunities to the broad aerospace community (conference papers/presentations, networking, education, etc.)
Ensure our events are financially viable (both for the attendee and for the Institute)
Ensure that our conferences are “must attend” events for all those in our profession and can accommodate expansion into new technology and program areas

8. AIAA New Event Model Conference Changes
Definitions
Conference – a meeting focused on a specific technology discipline or a related set of disciplines
Exposition – a companion exhibit / trade show that allows conference attendees to interact with representatives of commercial industrial base
Forum – an umbrella event that includes a collection of technical, programmatic, policy, etc., sessions on topics of interest to aerospace professionals
Tiers – different organized levels of forum
New events you’ll see next are all Forums and Expositions that use the old AIAA Conferences as building blocks.
