Aeropact

What Aeropact does

Aeropact Sp. z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością (Aeropact Sp. z o.o.) is a privately-held Polish aviation event management company headquartered in Poznań, Poland, founded in 2018 by Sebastian Golus and Hubert Topoliński. The company specializes in organizing aviation air shows and related events, with its flagship product being the LOTOS Gdynia Aerobaltic, described as the largest civil aviation air show in Poland. Aeropact's portfolio spans air show organization (Gdynia, Poznań/Aerofestival, Zielona Góra, Bella Skyway special, Saudi General Aviation Forum, Aqaba Air Show), aviation conferences (Aviation Market Congress), galas and plebiscites (International Aviation Plebiscite 'Cumulus'), multimedia and laser shows, aviation fairs (Aeroexpo), the Hangar Talks speaker series, aviation film production, and air-to-air photography sessions conducted from open aircraft ramps. The company is led by a core team of approximately 10 employees including President Sebastian Golus, Vice President Hubert Topoliński, Managing Director Maciej Stroiński, Director of Shows Office Mateusz Blicharz, Project Manager Marta Tomkiewicz, and Office Manager Magdalena Golińska.

Aeropact's business model combines transaction-fee event revenue (ticket sales and participation fees), corporate sponsorship (with Grupa LOTOS as the title sponsor of the flagship Aerobaltic), and ancillary consumer revenue from limited-edition merchandise (Aeropuzzle jigsaw puzzles) and a loyalty program (Aeropact Boarding Pass). The company's customer base spans aviation enthusiasts and individual fans attending air shows, corporate sponsors seeking brand association with prestige aviation events, aviation industry professionals participating in galas and conferences, and municipal governments (notably the City of Gdynia) using events for tourism promotion. Distribution channels include direct event attendance, online live streaming (introduced during the 2020 pandemic via Aerobaltic Online, the first online air show in Poland), website-based e-commerce for merchandise, and corporate sponsorship sales. In 2020 the company adapted to COVID-19 disruption by pivoting to digital broadcast and engaging in pandemic-relief campaigns (e.g., #nielatamypomagamy), demonstrating operational resilience.

The firm is registered in Poland with a share capital of PLN 500,000 (fully paid), holds no disclosed external investors, parents, or subsidiaries, and has earned industry recognition including the European Airshow Council Convention 2020 Marketing Award, the 2018 Top Produkt award in Tourism and Free Time, and the 2018 Marshal of Pomeranian Voivodeship Event of the Year award for Gdynia Aerobaltic. No patents, trademarks, regulatory actions, or funding rounds are disclosed in the available data.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• EAA AirVenture Oshkosh: The largest general aviation fly-in and air show in the US, run by the Experimental Aircraft Association. Comparable as a multi-day air show + aviation enthusiast gathering with industry exhibitor presence, but operated by a large association rather than a boutique commercial organizer.
• Aero India: Asia's largest biennial air show held in Bengaluru, India, with both trade exhibition and aerobatic display components. Operates in a similar combined trade show + air show format that Aeropact delivers via Aeroexpo aviation fairs and Aerobaltic, but at national/incumbent scale backed by the Indian Ministry of Defence.
• Farnborough International Airshow: One of the world's largest aerospace trade shows combining defense and commercial aviation with public weekend displays, organized by Farnborough International. Comparable to Aeropact in event-organizing capability but at vastly greater scale, with a much broader aerospace industry mandate beyond just air show spectacle.

Direct peers

• Shuttle Discovery: Hungarian aviation event and air show organizer operating in Central Europe. Comparable by region and scale to Aeropact, with a similar focus on organizing aviation-themed events and linking with international display teams in the CEE market.
• Koksijde International Airshow: Belgian coastal international airshow with strong military display participation. Closely mirrors Aeropact's mix of military aerobatic teams, civilian displays, and Belgian Air Force participation at a regional airfield.
• Sanicole International Airshow: Annual Belgian airshow held at Sanicole Aerodrome. Closest geographic comparable to Aeropact within Western Europe: a regional organizer producing a flagship spectator air show with international team recruitment and corporate sponsorship.
• Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT): The world's largest military airshow held annually at RAF Fairford, UK. Operates on the same model as Aeropact: organizer of a flagship spectator aviation event with international display teams, corporate sponsors, and aviation enthusiast programming.
• Airbourne International Airshow: Free-to-attend annual airshow held over Eastbourne seafront, UK. Directly comparable to LOTOS Gdynia Aerobaltic as a regional coastal/beachside spectator air show with military and civilian display teams, sponsorship-driven economics, and tourism impact goals.
