**Darmstadt, Germany / Bratislava, Slovakia | 9 July 2026** – Aviation-Event and Aviaedge are pleased to announce a new strategic media partnership that will strengthen aviation industry dialogue across Europe while expanding engagement with the Ukrainian aviation sector.

The partnership brings together Aviation-Event, one of Europe’s leading aviation conference and networking platforms, and Aviaedge, an independent aviation media organisation dedicated to reporting on Ukrainian civil aviation and its reintegration into the European aviation system. Together, both organisations aim to enhance industry visibility, promote informed discussion, and deliver multilingual aviation content to a broader international audience.

As an official media partner of Aviation-Event, Aviaedge will provide editorial coverage of Aviation-Event conferences and industry initiatives across its English, Ukrainian and German-language platforms. The collaboration will also increase Aviation-Event’s visibility throughout Central and Eastern Europe while providing its international community with valuable insights into the Ukrainian aviation market and its future development.

Registered in Ukraine and based in Bratislava, Aviaedge has established itself as a trusted source of aviation journalism through verified, named-source reporting and multilingual coverage of developments across the Ukrainian aviation sector. Recent editorial work includes CEO interviews with SkyUp Airlines, Bratislava Airport and Khmelnytskyi Airport, comprehensive coverage of Aviation-Event CLJ 2026, and the analytical series Dublin, in Three Movements, examining the future of airline retailing and commercial aviation.

Aviaedge is also a participant and media partner of the Association of Civil Aviation “Airports of Ukraine” (AAUCA), which has been a full member of ACI EUROPE since 2014.

**Marcel Riwalsky, CEO, Aviation-Event, stated:**

> “Strong media partnerships play an essential role in ensuring that the important conversations taking place at Aviation-Event reach audiences across Europe and beyond. Aviaedge has demonstrated a commitment to high-quality aviation journalism and provides valuable insight into the Ukrainian aviation sector at a pivotal moment for the industry. We are delighted to welcome Aviaedge as an official media partner and look forward to building a long-term collaboration.”

**Viktoriia Hrechukha, Chair of the Board of Aviaedge, added:**

> “Aviation-Event brings together the people who decide where European aviation goes next, and that is the room Ukrainian airports need to be in before the airspace reopens. As media partner, Aviaedge will carry these conversations to executives in English, Ukrainian, and German, and bring a market most of Europe has not yet met into the same conversation. The partnership opens a door in both directions.”

Beyond conference coverage, the partnership reflects a shared commitment to advancing industry dialogue through interviews, analysis, thought leadership and editorial collaboration. Together, Aviation-Event and Aviaedge will strengthen connections between aviation stakeholders across Europe and Ukraine while expanding access to multilingual industry insights.
