Sustainable Aviation Futures LATAM Congress 2026: The Sustainable Aviation Futures LATAM Congress will take place from 2–4 March 2026 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, São Paulo, bringing together the region’s aviation, energy, finance, and policy leaders to define Latin America’s sustainable aviation fuel and feedstock landscape. Returning to São Paulo for its second edition, the congress positions Latin America as a critical emerging hub in the global transition toward sustainable aviation.

Purpose and Objectives

The purpose of the congress is to accelerate the deployment of sustainable aviation fuels across Latin America by connecting policymakers, airlines, financiers, fuel producers, NGOs, and technology providers. The event aims to explore how the region’s feedstock availability, production capabilities, and industrial expertise can support large-scale SAF development while meeting both regional and global decarbonisation goals. It is designed to help stakeholders move from ambition to execution by addressing policy alignment, project development, financing, and market readiness.

Key Activities

Held over three days, the congress will convene 400 attendees and 100 expert speakers, supported by 30 global partners, alongside more than 20 hours of structured networking. The programme focuses on developments across Latin America’s SAF market, including feedstock landscapes, refining and production pathways, offtake strategies, and investment models. A dedicated SAF Workshop and Intelligence Day provides in-depth, expert-led insight into project development, feedstock availability, and financing mechanisms, enabling participants to deepen technical understanding alongside strategic discussion. Extensive networking opportunities are designed to support partnership-building and commercial engagement across the aviation and energy value chains.

Significance

The Sustainable Aviation Futures LATAM Congress is significant as Latin America’s role in the global energy transition continues to expand. With abundant feedstock potential and growing aviation demand, the region is increasingly positioned as a future global supplier of sustainable aviation fuels. By convening regional and international stakeholders in São Paulo, the congress provides a focused platform to align policy, capital, and industrial capability, while strengthening Latin America’s visibility and influence in the global SAF market.

Expected Outcomes

Participants can expect to gain practical insight into SAF market dynamics in Latin America, build relationships with senior decision-makers across aviation, energy, and finance, and identify concrete commercial and investment opportunities. The congress is designed to catalyse partnerships, support project pipelines, and accelerate the development of scalable, low-carbon aviation fuel solutions that contribute to net-zero aviation goals both regionally and globally.
