Pangiam - Experts & Thought Leaders

Pangiam announces the appointment of Steven Greenway as President, Pangiam Commercial. In this role, Greenway will focus his more than two decades of commercial airline leadership experience on continuing Pangiam’s expansive growth in the secure movement of people and goods. “Steven is among the world leaders in solving the unique business challenges in global commercial aviation and digital customer experiences,” said Kevin McAleenan, Pangiam’s Chief Executive Officer. “Pangiam is thrilled to bring the insight he has gained making airlines successful around the world to our customers and clients.” Homeland security leaders Pangiam is driving change across the aviation sector by applying innovation Founded by a team of global trade, travel, aviation, and homeland security leaders, Pangiam is driving change across the aviation sector by applying innovation, emerging technologies, and the power of data to solve operational, facilitation, and security challenges facing airlines and airports today. Greenway has more than 20 years of global experience as an airline executive. His focus was often on digital leadership, loyalty, and rapid sustainable growth, with emphasis on guiding Low Coast Carriers (LCC). Steven was a founding member and Chief Commercial Officer for Peach, All Nippon Airways successful LCC; and Scoot, Singapore Airlines’ mid to long-haul LCC; plus, CEO of reward-U, the pioneering LCC loyalty/everyday program of HK Express. Most recently, he was President of Swoop, Canada’s first Ultra Low-Cost Carrier, and a subsidiary of the WestJet Group. “Throughout my career, I have often focused on building ‘something from nothing,’ which is much like Pangiam’s mission to innovate around the art of what’s possible. I’m excited to be an integral part of guiding visionary solutions that promise to not only transform aviation and global travel, but many other industries as well,” said Greenway.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has selected transport security technologists Pangiam to demonstrate its Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven accessible screening solution that has the potential to transform aviation security worldwide. Project DARTMOUTH, the collaboration between Pangiam and Google Cloud, utilises artificial intelligence (AI) and pattern analysis technologies to digest and analyse vast amounts of data in real-time to identify potential prohibited items in carry-on baggage. Computer vision technologies “As TSA and other security agencies adopt 3D Computed Tomography (CT), this application of AI represents a potentially transformative leap in aviation security, making air travel safer and more consistent, while allowing TSA’s highly trained officers to focus on bags that pose the greatest risk.” “Our aim is to utilise AI and computer vision technologies to enhance security by providing TSA and security officers with powerful tools to detect prohibitive items that may pose a threat to aviation security is a significant step toward setting a new security standard with worldwide implications,” said Alexis Long, Product Director, Pangiam. Identify innovative solutions ITF’s mission is to identify and demonstrate emerging solutions that increase security effectiveness TSA’s Innovation Task Force (ITF) issued a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for transportation security solutions in December 2021 to identify innovative solutions that are rigorously evaluated and then demonstrated in a live operational environment. ITF’s mission is to identify and demonstrate emerging solutions that increase security effectiveness and efficiency, improve passenger experience, and to deliver solutions that secure the freedom of movement throughout the nation’s transportation system. AI-based solution The first series of Project DARTMOUTH trials is set to begin at TSA’s System Integration Facility (TSIF) – a 128,000 square-foot lab that serves as a testing ground for state-of-the-art technologies for possible implementation at airport security checkpoints. While TSA is the first to debut Project DARTMOUTH initiative in North America, Pangiam is also working with AGS Airports Group on trials at Aberdeen, Glasgow, and Southampton airport in the UK. Pangiam’s AI-based solution is built to open architecture standards and therefore, can be interoperable with hardware and equipment in a ‘plug and play’ manner, allowing security operations to be transformed quickly through software innovation.
