Aventure attended the 2025 Air Carriers Purchasing Conference (ACPC), held August 16–19 at the Marriott Marquis, in Aventure's hometown of Atlanta, Georgia. The annual event last took place in Atlanta in 2021.

ACPC is recognized as one of the most important networking events in commercial aviation, bringing together suppliers and buyers to foster collaboration.

Aventure has attended every ACPC since 2001.

Representing Aventure was vice president of sales Ebrahim Zakaria, director of asset management Andrew Crombie, and directors of strategic accounts Kevin Lang and Stefan Shemaitis.

They connected with airlines to discuss parts supply solutions, and had discussions with MRO shops regarding the large number of parts Aventure is outsourcing for refurbishment, including 12 recently acquired Alaska Airlines Boeing 737NGs.

Many ACPC guests toured Aventure's brand new warehouse facility, showing the increased capabilities of what Aventure can provide the world's leading airlines, air forces, and MRO centers.

"ACPC is a great way to put your finger on the pulse of the industry," said Kevin.

Aventure marked the conclusion of the summer internship program with a buffet lunch for interns and staff, where they were able to reflect on their experiences.

Vivian Gay and Mohamed Ali Mokri worked closely with Aventure's various departments, learning how Aventure operates in the complex environment of the aviation industry.

Vivian Gay is an incoming sophomore at Wingate University in North Carolina, while Mohamed Ali Mokri is an incoming freshman at Georgia State University.

"I learned there are strict rules and regulations when it comes to receiving and shipping parts," said Vivian. "I saw Aventure's commitment to ensuring that every part meets the highest standards of safety and compliance in the aviation industry."

Vivian's dream job is to practice in social psychology, with the goal of making a positive impact on people's lives.

"The project I enjoyed most was working with the shipping and receiving departments to create shelving labels in the huge new warehouse," said Mohamed, "I combined programming within spreadsheets with other skills I learned at Aventure."

Mohamed's dream job is to work for a game studio or enter the world of AI development and research.
