CEPA set to enter a new era
CEPA, the three-year old Central European Private Aviation organisation,
will be announcing a new Chairman and a fresh new emphasis at the
beginning of February, as departing Chairman Jiří Matoušek, completes
his contracted year at the end of this month.
Dagmar Grossmann, CEPA founder, explains: “We feel it is important to
continue bringing fresh ideas to CEPA and for 2012 we have decided to
recruit our Chairman from another key area of aviation to ensure the
Association continues to develop its full potential. Jiří will remain
with CEPA and assist us during the transition period. Our team is now
proactively assessing proposals on how to strengthen the Organisation in
2012 and beyond.”
“I would like to thank Mr Matoušek wholeheartedly for his dedication
over the past year,” she said. “His excellent knowledge of the industry
and strong leadership have benefitted CEPA enormously, culminating in a
highly successful CEPA EXPO, held in Prague in December, the first
dedicated business aviation exhibition held within the central European
region.”
Jiří Matoušek replaced Dagmar Grossmann as Chairman of CEPA in February
2011 and has played a pivotal role in developing the profile of CEPA,
together with building new relationships between east and western
business aviation associations and communities. Working together with Ms
Grossmann and David Couto, who will continue to head up CEPA’s
marketing efforts, Jiří has worked on various CEPA-related projects
during the past year.
CEPA is a voluntary, non-governmental and non-profit members association
which co-ordinates the interests of executive aviation manufacturers,
operators, airports, service providers, training establishments, fixed
wing and rotary brokers to improve standards and best business practice
in the region. Supporting services including financial, legal, insurance
and publishing companies are also welcomed. The Association's primary
goal is to represent its members' interests at
