Willis, a WTW Company (NASDAQ:WTW) has partnered with NATS – the leader in air traffic control services – to provide risk and resilience advisory services and customized solutions to global aviation stakeholders.

As part of the partnership, Willis and NATS today signed a memorandum of understanding at the Dubai Airshow 2025, an event attended by representatives of government, aviation and aerospace companies.
Together, Willis and NATS will leverage their expertise in the air and on the ground to provide integrated risk and resilience solutions to aviation service providers, to manage risk and enhance resilience.
“Resiliency in aviation is no longer an option, it is a necessity,” said Tania Rocca, executive director of risk and resilience consulting at Willis Global Aviation & Aerospace. “Geopolitical shocks, cyber threats, climate disruption, and supply chain volatility are becoming the norm in our industry. Through a holistic approach – from airspace to ground – we design resilience systems that not only recover from disruptions, but prepare stakeholders to meet global policy and regulatory developments, and provide assurance for human capital. Long-term investment and planning, I am very excited to be working with Nats with such a unique offering.
“This unique partnership, led by Tanya, combines our risk and resilience expertise with NATS’ global airspace capabilities to drive innovation, safety and stability across the sector,” said Pamela Thompson-Hall, Head of International Affairs at Willis.
“We are delighted to be joining Willis Global Aerospace,” said Ben Cave, NATS International Managing Director. “The combination of our operational experience – built on decades of operating in some of aviation’s busiest and most complex environments – and Willis’ deep understanding of risk and resilience, means we are uniquely positioned to support customers as the industry grows and evolves.”
