[PR] New Global Head of Marketing and Product Management for Panasonic Avionics

1 August 2018 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

Clear immigration while still on the plane?? Cameras integrated into the IFE system could soon make that a reality.

Panasonic Avionics has a new marketing boss with a strong background in cloud services and AI systems. It will be interesting to follow the company’s shift in focus as the leadership team continues its rebuild after the bribery scandal, especially as IFE/C or airline-related experience appears an optional qualification.
