• Conference Brings Nearly 2,000 Business Aviation Leaders from Around the World  to Discuss Industry News and Innovation 

SAVANNAH, Ga., April 7, 2026 – Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. welcomed nearly 2,000 attendees from 6  continents and more than 30 countries to Skyward, its newly reimagined customer event in Savannah to  discuss the various topics and trends impacting business aviation. The three-day conference took place  last week at the Savannah Convention Center, not far from the company’s worldwide headquarters.  

Skyward represents an evolution of Gulfstream’s long-standing biennial Operators & Suppliers  Conference, introducing a refreshed format designed to be even more engaging, collaborative and  customizable for customers. Building on the success of previous events, Skyward delivered robust  technical sessions, leadership updates, open forums, industry innovations and extensive networking  opportunities — all led by Gulfstream experts from around the world. 

“Skyward is our premier customer event and the largest gathering of Gulfstream operators and suppliers  worldwide,” said Lor Izzard, senior vice president, Gulfstream Customer Support. “This event provides an  engaging forum for us to bring customers and industry partners together with our team of experts to  share developments and gather feedback in real time.”  

The enhanced event structure allowed attendees to tailor their experience by choosing from a wide range  of sessions that aligned with their individual needs and interests. The program also offered opportunities  for attendees to earn credits applicable toward Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Inspection  Authorization (IA) renewal requirements, supporting the professional development of maintenance  technicians and operations personnel. 

“Customers place their trust in our worldwide support network, and we are committed to strengthening  that partnership through expertise, transparency and meaningful collaboration,” added Izzard. “The  insights shared during Skyward help drive our path forward and ensure we deliver an aircraft ownership  and service experience that exceeds expectations.” 

The outcomes achieved during Skyward are complemented by the ongoing exclusive customer and  operator events Gulfstream hosts around the world. For more information, customers should visit  MyGulfstream.com.
