Dubai’s status as a growing international aviation hub will be highlighted next week when the Airport Show, the largest airport construction, operations, technology and services exhibition to be staged anywhere in the world this year, opens for business.
With a record line up of more than 600 suppliers from 40 countries, and over 6,000 visitors expected to attend, the show has grown by 12 per cent this year in line with the ongoing aviation boom across the Middle East, South Asia and Africa.
Manufacturers and suppliers heading for Dubai from around the world have major incentives.
According to research conducted by the show’s organisers, Streamline Marketing Group, airport projects and expansions across the region are currently valued at more than US$68 billion, with the Gulf countries accounting for US$43 billion of this growth.
The Airport Show is held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority and Chairman, Dubai Airports. The show has become a well established forum for the selection and pre-qualification of suppliers and contractors for airport developments across the region and this year more than 100 civil aviation authorities and airports will be represented.
Taking place at Airport Expo Dubai from 2-4 June, this year’s show features four specialist conferences, ‘Future Airports, ‘Air Traffic Control Middle East’, ‘Aviation Security Middle East’ and ‘Ground Handling Middle East’, giving aviation officials the chance to discuss and debate pertinent issues affecting the aviation sector such as increasing air traffic and the requirements of future airports.
