ABU DHABI, 22nd July, 2025 (WAM) -- The Council of the International Civil Aviation Organisation
(ICAO), during its 235th Session, has officially adopted the UAE's Global Sustainable Aviation
Marketplace (GSAM) as an institutionalised annual event under ICAO’s official calendar, marking a
rare recognition for a state-initiated concept to evolve into a regular, internationally supported
platform.

First launched in Abu Dhabi in February 2025 on the sidelines of the ICAO Global Implementation
Support Symposium (GISS), the GSAM initiative aims to accelerate sustainable practices in global
aviation by bringing together stakeholders from across the ecosystem, including airlines,
manufacturers, regulators and investors, to drive the adoption of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF),
low-carbon aviation fuels (LCAF), and climate finance solutions under the ICAO (Finvest Hub).
