Singapore airshow

Business forums will take centre stage in February at the fifth Singapore Airshow, the largest of its kind in Asia and regarded as one of the most important aerospace exhibitions in the world.

The 2016 event, at the Changi Exhibition Centre from 16-21 February, has received a strong vote of confidence, with more than 1,000 participating companies from 50 countries confirming their attendance.

Three-quarters are returning exhibitors and industry heavyweights, including Airbus, Bell Helicopter, Boeing, Bombardier, Embraer, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce, ST Engineering, Thales and UTC Aerospace Systems. 

The show’s status reflects the projected growth of Asia’s aircraft fleet size over the next 20 years with Boeing calculating the region will account for almost 40% of new aircraft deliveries, making Asia’s fleet the largest in the world by 2034.

Back by popular demand, the business forums will cover four key areas – emerging technologies, training & simulation, Asia, plus developing international partnerships, with a focus on Singapore and France.

Together, the forums will focus on latest developments and business opportunities in the aerospace and aviation markets, with a view to providing insights and strategic guidance for attendees to tap into key aerospace growth markets.  www.singaporeairshow.com
