In the rapidly evolving world of aviation, where safety, efficiency, and innovation converge in the skies, one company is making a quiet but powerful impact—deep within the electrical nerves of every aircraft. WiN MS (Wire Network Monitoring Solutions), founded in 2012 and headquartered in Paris-Saclay with offices in Atlanta and Singapore, is revolutionizing how the aviation industry thinks about wiring diagnostics. As one of the standout honorees in this year’s “Best Aviation Innovations of 2025,” WiN MS proves that the real breakthroughs often lie beneath the surface.
At the heart of this innovation is Arnaud Peltier, a visionary entrepreneur who bridges the gap between engineering precision and strategic foresight. With a background in Physics & Optics from Paris-Saclay University and an MBA from ESADE-HEC, Arnaud embodies a rare fusion of technical depth and business acumen. He co-founded WiN MS with the mission to tackle one of aviation’s most persistent and costly challenges: electrical faults in aircraft wiring.
In an industry long defined by fax machines, spreadsheets, and siloed communication, two innovators are taking global logistics by storm. Meet Wisor.AI, a freight-tech disruptor with a clear mission: to digitize and streamline freight forwarding for the modern age. Founded in 2021 by CEO Raz Ronen and CPO Eiran Bolless, Wisor is not just fixing what’s broken in logistics—it’s building a smarter, faster, and more connected future.
From Frustration to Foundation
The vision behind Wisor was born out of frustration with the outdated and disjointed processes that plague freight forwarding. Raz, a seasoned entrepreneur with a background in operational excellence, knew that while e-commerce and supply chains had advanced rapidly, freight forwarders were still bogged down by legacy systems and manual workflows.
The idea for RE:DO didn’t come from a boardroom or a business plan. It began in a kitchen in Gothenburg, Sweden, with two people searching for something they couldn’t find.
When Linda’s husband, a professional hockey player, struggled to find a clean, protein-rich, and convenient breakfast that didn’t taste bland or leave him crashing by noon, the couple realized they weren’t alone. Whether you’re an elite athlete, a multitasking parent, or a time-starved entrepreneur, the challenge is the same: balancing nutrition with convenience, without sacrificing taste.
They searched the market, hoping to find a solution. Instead, they found a gap—and decided to fill it themselves. That spark became RE:DO Foods.
In a world where healthcare is becoming increasingly transactional, one practice in Wilmington, North Carolina is carving out a different path—one rooted in purpose, precision, and patient-first values. Founded in 2019, Tinsley Surgical, PA has emerged as a beacon of independent medical excellence, specializing in vein, vascular, and general surgery while transforming how surgical care is experienced by patients.
At the heart of this transformation is Dr. Ellis A. Tinsley Jr., MD, FACS, FSVS, a seasoned vascular and general surgeon whose mission transcends clinical metrics. “I see my work as a deep calling. I call it selfless exceptionalism,” he explains. “There is nothing more important in the world than working with people in their most vulnerable circumstance.”
In the complex, high-stakes world of aviation, safety, precision, and efficiency are not just buzzwords—they are the foundation of every successful operation. One company that has not only internalized this ethos but has also elevated it into an art form is LAATS S.A., a premier ground handling and fixed-base operations (FBO) provider based in Guatemala. Under the visionary leadership of Mario Alfredo Juarez Rizo, LAATS has grown from a regional provider to a name synonymous with quality, trust, and innovation in Latin American aviation.
A Legacy of Expertise and Discipline
Founded in 1998, LAATS has had a focused yet dynamic journey—one shaped significantly by the rich and multidimensional career of its CEO, Mario Juarez. A graduate in Industrial Engineering from Louisiana State University, Juarez brought to LAATS a wealth of experience that spans across roles in aviation maintenance, engineering, regulation, and airline operations in both government and private sectors. His professional journey—from Line Engineer at La Vereda Sewing Company to Maintenance Manager for TACA regionals, and eventually founding multiple businesses—embodies a rare blend of technical expertise, entrepreneurial drive, and strategic vision.
than a soft skill—it’s now a strategic function. Leading this global evolution from the heart of Asia is Facilitators Network Singapore Pte Ltd. (FNS), a self-funding social enterprise and the region’s champion for professional facilitation and organisational development. As the network marks over two decades of service, co-founders Prabu Naidu and Janice Lua continue to chart new territories while remaining deeply rooted in their original mission: to elevate the profession of facilitation and use it as a lever for meaningful change.
Founded in 2003, FNS was born with the vision to promote professional facilitation across Southeast Asia. What started as a focused mission has now matured into a dynamic, multi-faceted enterprise offering strategic planning facilitation, stakeholder engagement, retreats, and OD consultancy to clients ranging from charities to global corporations. Their journey has mirrored and shaped the evolution of facilitation practices in the region.
“Our vision has evolved from promoting professional facilitation to creating sustainable communities of practice, certifying facilitators, and building a networked ecosystem for learning and impact,” shares Prabu Naidu, a trailblazer in the field and one of the earliest proponents of facilitation as a structured discipline in Asia.
