Tangent Link Announces Presentations for Aerial Firefighting Europe

Aerial Firefighting Europe is scheduled to take place on 27 – 28 April 2021 in Nîmes, France with full support from Sécurité Civile. In light of the ongoing challenges surrounding COVID-19, the two-day conference agenda will take the format of showcase theatres and each will cover a specific theme.

The program will discuss the challenges faced by the industry and provide a platform to ensure best practice is achieved. The event will consist of different showcase theatres organized over two days. Attendees will be able to choose which showcase theatre they would like to attend. Separate auditoriums and repeated parallel sessions with small audience groups will allow social distancing rules to be in place and ensure the safety of our conference delegates.
