tangerine’s Matt Round shares future-focused passenger experience insights at ADS Conference

29 June 2026 – tangerine was pleased to contribute to the ADS Aircraft Interiors Conference at iAero, Yeovil last week, where industry leaders from across the supply chain came together to explore the future of aircraft interiors.
Chief Creative Officer Matt Round delivered a session on Passenger Experience of the Future, offering a design-led perspective that complemented the event’s focus on sustainability, innovation, materials, and regulatory challenges. His talk highlighted the importance of taking a human-centred approach to cabin design, ensuring that evolving technical solutions also deliver meaningful value for passengers and operators alike.
Central to the session was the idea of “moving people” — not only physically through transportation, but emotionally through considered design, and strategically by helping aviation businesses create differentiated, commercially effective experiences.
The conference brought together OEMs, Tier 1s, SMEs and R&D organisations, reinforcing the importance of collaboration across the value chain. Strong engagement throughout the event underlined the growing recognition that passenger experience is a critical driver alongside sustainability and innovation in shaping the next generation of aircraft interiors.
tangerine looks forward to continuing its engagement with ADS Group and the wider Aircraft Interiors community as the sector evolves.
