 The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) has opened a European branch office in Brussels, Belgium and has hired Brian Davey as the Director of European Affairs.
A native of Ireland, Brian will represent the general aviation manufacturing industry before European institutions in Brussels as well as the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in Cologne, and will work with other aviation stakeholders to promote the continued development of a safe and sustainable aviation industry. Prior to joining GAMA, he worked for APCO Worldwide in their European Union (EU) regulatory and public policy division. Prior to APCO, Brian served in the private cabinet of Charlie McCreevy, European commissioner for internal market and services.
"General aviation continues to grow in Europe, and many of our member companies are headquartered in the region," said GAMA's Chairman and President and CEO of Jeppesen, Mark Van Tine. "As an international association, GAMA's full-time presence in Brussels will ensure the association's long-term involvement in international aviation issues, while helping us to maintain strong partnerships with decision makers in Europe."
