ALG - Transport and infrastructure consulting firm

Last week, we participated in the #ACDMExchangeDubai organised by Altitudes Professional Services and hosted by Dubai Airports. In this event, experts, airports, airlines, and ANSPs got together to share experiences, best practices, not-so-good practices, and lessons learned in the implementation of #ACDM in all types of airports and from all perspectives, as well as the evolution of the ACDM concept into newer concepts such as AOP and other TAM-related initiatives. Our principal, Vladimir Coca, participated in the Panel Discussion about the pros and cons of outsourcing the support to implement ACDM Vs opting to implement the concept with internal resources, together with Altitudes General Manager, Gerardo D., and Airport Intelligence expert Dries Decloedt. Thank you to Gerardo del Caz and Altitudes for the organisation and to Dubai Airports for hosting such an interesting event.

Na semana passada, Alba Freixa Barat, Senior Manager da ALG Brazil, participou da #ANM2025 para apresentar os resultados do estudo desenvolvido pela ALG para a Airports Council International - Latin America and Caribbean - ACI LAC e a ABR - Aeroportos do Brasil. O trabalho identificou as principais oportunidades e restrições que condicionam o crescimento da aviação no #Brasil. O estudo contempla uma análise abrangente dos diferentes drivers do mercado de transporte aéreo — tanto os fatores extrínsecos (como desempenho econômico, poder aquisitivo e fluxo turístico) quanto os aspectos intrínsecos, relacionados às dinâmicas operacionais e às políticas específicas do setor. Além disso, foram examinadas agendas potenciais para destravar o mercado, com vistas a aprimorar o ambiente regulatório e promover maior eficiência e competitividade. A ALG agradece à ACI-LAC e à ABR pela confiança e pela iniciativa que possibilitou o desenvolvimento deste estudo.

⛵Is investing in marinas the next smart infrastructure move? As nautical tourism accelerates, marinas are evolving from simple docking points into strategic hubs of economic activity, innovation, and sustainability, attracting increasing interest from investors worldwide. 💡Why? 🔹Strong long-term growth driven by a rising global boating fleet 🔹Recurring, resilient revenues with attractive margins 🔹Limited supply and high entry barriers due to land scarcity and regulation At the same time, the sector is being reshaped by larger vessels, green transition, digitalization, and new access models like boating-as-a-service. This creates a clear opportunity to modernize, consolidate, and transform marinas into smart, sustainable, experience-driven destinations. For investors seeking resilient, future-proof assets aligned with the blue economy, marinas may be a position worth taking now.

ALG was pleased to take part in the Caminos 2025 Career Fair, held on 19–20 November at the School of Civil Engineering of the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. The event brought together leading companies from the #infrastructure and engineering sectors along with students preparing to become the next generation of civil engineers.   The fair offered a fantastic opportunity to connect with future professionals, exchange ideas, and share insights on how consulting can play a key role in their career development.   Representing ALG were Paulina Zachrisson from Human Resources, and Mario Espinosa Mateo, Manuel Hernández Muñoz, and Miguel Armesto Cofan from the Consulting team, who had the pleasure of meeting many talented participants and discussing potential career paths in the sector.   We look forward to continuing to support young engineering talent and to strengthening our connections within the industry.

🛰️We had the opportunity to take part in Space Tech Expo Europe in Bremen alongside the Institut d'Estudis Espacials de Catalunya - IEEC, as part of the group of Catalan companies representing the strength and international projection of Catalonia’s space ecosystem. The most valuable outcome of this experience was the chance to connect with multiple clusters from different regions and countries, fostering meaningful exchanges and opening new pathways for collaboration with key players in the #space sector. These interactions have generated valuable insights, synergies, and concrete opportunities that reinforce the path we are building in the space domain. Representing ALG, Alfonso Martinez Mata and Álvaro Estalella Silvela participated in these discussions, sharing opinions, expertise, and recent advances. This marks another step forward in an ongoing journey: we are opening new paths, moving forward, and growing, thereby strengthening the international presence of the space ecosystem and contributing to the sector's development. Thank you to all the clusters, partners, and companies who shared their vision, knowledge, and ambition with us.

ALG had the privilege of attending the Euro-Mediterranean Economic & Business Forum 2025, co-organized by Cambra de Comerç de Barcelona and European Institute of the Mediterranean #IEMed. This year’s forum brought together business and political leaders from Europe, Africa, and the Middle East to drive forward the economic and social development of the Mediterranean. As part of the event’s roundtable discussions, Mario Espinosa Mateo participated in the session “Unlocking growth: special economic zones as catalysts for industrialization and trade”. The session explored how #SEZs and industrial parks can serve as engines for regional industrial development, export promotion, and integration into global value chains, addressing key areas such as #infrastructure planning, regulatory frameworks, and governance models. Mario contributed by sharing insights on the strategic planning and infrastructure design approaches that are most effective in transforming #ports and SEZs into integrated industrial ecosystems, rather than standalone facilities — a perspective grounded in ALG’s expertise in developing competitive, sustainable, and future-ready #economiczones. A great opportunity to highlight how ALG helps turn strategic visions into thriving industrial ecosystems.

Our team participated in the 2025 Airport & ATC Charges and Performance Conference in Munich, a key annual event for Europe’s aviation economics and ATM performance community. At the conference, our Principal, Andrea Ranieri, delivered a presentation focused on: 🔹The financial resilience of European ANSPs 🔹Investment intensity and CAPEX needs under the EU ATM Master Plan 🔹Trends in cost recovery, cash reserves, and balance-sheet dynamics 🔹The link between investment, controller productivity, and operational performance 🔹A forward look at traffic growth and the capacity challenge through 2035 The conference represented a significant milestone for the sector: traffic is returning, operational performance is improving, yet the financial fundamentals of ANSPs remain fragile. It provided an excellent opportunity to exchange insights with researchers, practitioners, and operators regarding sector challenges and potential improvements supported by economic theory, mathematical modelling, and advanced data analytics. We would like to extend our thanks to Hans-Martin Niemeier, Eric Ngoja, and Tolga Ülkü for their outstanding work in organizing this year’s edition and bringing together such a strong community. #aviation #airtrafficmanagement #airports #ATC #economics #SESAR #ANSP #ATM

✈️ Aviation is entering a new era of risks… but also a new era of possibilities. 📊 Cyberattacks, operational disruptions, and emerging threats are reshaping the very foundation of aviation #safety. Conceptual frameworks for integrated #riskmanagement already exist, but the real challenge remains: how do we actually implement them effectively? This is where Data & AI start to change the game. 1️⃣Building a global view of visible risk: AI connects safety and cybersecurity data to create a unified picture that was previously out of reach. 2️⃣Revealing hidden vulnerabilities: Advanced models detect cross-domain patterns that expose risks we haven’t yet modelled — the blind spots that matter most. 3️⃣Quantifying real operational and financial impact: Data & AI translate anomalies into measurable consequences: delays, diversions, supply chain disruptions, and passenger impacts. 💡So the question is: if we finally have the tools to anticipate and understand risk at a new level… what’s stopping us from using them? The future of safety will be more integrated, more proactive, and powered by intelligent insights.
