Flybird Aircraft Management Services Limited has announced its sponsorship of the inaugural Alumni Network Dinner of the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) Nigeria Chapter, set to hold on December 5, 2025, in Abuja.
The event will take place on the sidelines of the Nigeria International Airshow and is expected to rally aviation professionals, industry leaders and key stakeholders from across the country.
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, based in Daytona Beach, Florida, is widely regarded as the world’s leading institution for aviation and aerospace education. The Nigeria Alumni Network Dinner will bring together distinguished graduates and industry figures to celebrate the university’s legacy, deepen professional ties and expand ERAU’s presence within West Africa’s aviation community. The event also coincides with the university’s 100th anniversary.
Flybird AMSL, a key supporter of aviation capacity-building initiatives, said its sponsorship underscores its long-standing commitment to strengthening professional networks within the sector.
Speaking on the company’s involvement, Flybird CEO Ahmed Bashir Borodo noted that supporting the event aligns with the firm’s mission to enhance collaboration and elevate standards across Nigeria’s aviation ecosystem.
“Flybird is proud to celebrate Embry-Riddle’s remarkable 100-year journey,” Borodo said. “As an organisation rooted in aviation excellence, we value strong professional networks and world-class training. Supporting this inaugural alumni dinner reflects our commitment to fostering knowledge, capacity-building, and meaningful partnerships. As an Embry-Riddle graduate myself, the discipline and global exposure I gained continue to shape the standards we uphold at Flybird.”
The commemorative dinner will feature keynote reflections, strategic networking opportunities and forward-looking discussions on innovation, industry partnerships and leadership development in aviation and aerospace.
Flybird congratulated ERAU on its centennial anniversary, reaffirming its dedication to initiatives that empower aviation talent across Nigeria and the wider region.
