The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) is the largest aerospace professional society in the world, serving a diverse range of more than 35,000 individual members from 80 countries, and 100 corporate members. AIAA members help make the world safer, more connected, more accessible, and more prosperous.

We believe that…

• Our profession always has and always will inspire innovation and drive progress in the U.S. and throughout the world.
• As a profession and community, we will continue to be amazed and to amaze; to dream big; and to be both exhilarated and inspired by new frontiers.
• The essence of the aerospace profession is our fascination with flight, with defying gravity, and with going beyond the boundaries that some might see as limitations.

• Our work fuels the collective human drive to explore and be part of something bigger than ourselves, and brings about new technologies that make everyday living better for everyone.

We exist to ignite and celebrate aerospace ingenuity and collaboration – and we promise to be a lifelong link for aerospace professionals and a champion for their achievements.

View "In Search of the Next Impossible Thing," the new AIAA credo.

Recognizing that there was no one venue that brought the aviation industry together to address challenges and future direction with a broad, integrating view of the aviation marketplace, AIAA and The Boeing Company started partnering in 2010 to develop a new event. The objective was to develop the premier forum for presentation of both recent progress on aircraft design, air traffic management and operations, and aviation technologies as well as policy, planning, and market issues affecting the future direction of the global aviation industry. The goal was to offer a unique venue for interaction between researchers, system developers, product support personnel, managers, and business developers from throughout industry, government, and academia.

The AIAA Aviation and Aeronautics Forum and Exposition (AIAA AVIATION) has continued to grow in each succeeding year, drawing participants from around the globe. Plenary and Forum 360 participants tackled the most pressing issues impacting the future of aviation, while the technical program presented innovative research and technologies that offer solutions.
