It is with great excitement that we invite you to the 2019 Airport Minority Advisory Council (AMAC) Annual Conference happening in Los Angeles, August 20-23, 2019.

The City of Los Angeles and Los Angeles World Airports are proud to host the 2019 conference, which will include more than 1,000 individuals who are driving and shaping the airports of tomorrow.

The theme of this year's conference is Transforming the Future of Airports. Airports across the country are amid mega construction projects, building new facilities and modernizing terminals. They are implementing new technologies, including for passenger screening, guest services and wayfinding to improve how guests navigate airports.
