MEMBER ASSOCIATIONS
A coordinated voice for business aviation, the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC) was founded in 1981 by five business aviation associations whose core mission was to represent the interests of business aircraft operators in their respective countries. The initial five organizations have now grown to 15 member associations spanning six continents. A Governing Board comprised of representatives designated by each member association directs IBAC. The work of the member associations fundamentally guides IBAC’s priorities. IBAC, in turn, provides expertise to ICAO’s work, ensuring global standards reflect business aviation needs, and advises the member associations on best practices and policies to facilitate international business aviation and the growth of their operator members.

A NEW WAY TO GET INVOLVED WITH IBAC
Become an Industry Partner
Demonstrate Leadership, Engagement, and Commitment
The International Business Aviation Association (IBAC) is the voice of business aviation at the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), an UN specialized agency that establishes global rules and standards for international aviation.
Uniquely based at ICAO headquarters in Montreal where it holds official observer status - and with a global team of specialists located in Belgium, Brazil, Canada, United States and United Kingdom - IBAC delivers expert advocacy, technical expertise, and intelligence across a wide spectrum ranging from participating at key ICAO panels, task forces, and standing committees to representing business aviation at ICAO’s triennial Assembly, high level conferences and regional forums.
IBAC encourages business aviation manufacturers and service providers - including MRO, aircraft management, transactional and other sectors - to join IBAC as an Industry Partner and assist in shaping standards at this level before they are adopted and applied as regulations by CAAs in their sovereign countries.
Industry Partner Benefits and Opportunities:
- Engage with IBAC to shape international standards – most are adopted and applied as national CAA regulations directly impacting your organization, clients, and suppliers.
