Dubai is presenting the world's airport and aviation suppliers with opportunities to capitalize on the $10 billion worth of development programs now under way in the Middle East to create the most modern and safe airports in the world.
The Airport Build & Supply Exhibition and Conference will be officially opened on Monday. With major airport developments now under way in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Bahrain, Libya, Kuwait, Tunisia, Algeria, Oman, Morocco and Syria, leading international manufacturers are heading to Dubai.
Organized by event management and marketing specialists Streamline Marketing, the three-day event will gather 100 exhibitors representing 23 countries under one roof at Airport Expo Dubai. A range of specialized equipment and services on show includes escalators, elevators, and moving walkways, security and lighting systems, telecommunications, automated baggage systems, fixtures and fittings, signage and graphics, first and business class lounges, aircraft hangers and fire stations.
The Departments of Civil Aviation (DCA) from Dubai, Ras Al-Khaimah and Dhahran have all taken stands to promote their expansion plans at the exhibition. In addition, the DCA authorities in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and Bahrain, as well as Doha International Airport, Tanzania Airports Authority, Ethiopian Civil Aviation Authority and the Ministry of Civil Aviation of India, have committed to sending official delegations to the event.
Private meetings have been pre-arranged for each exhibitor with the relevant project manager, engineer or architect in the Dubai DCA, enabling suppliers to discuss Dubai International Airport's $ 4.1 billion expansion, while representatives of the DCA authorities from neighboring countries have also been encouraged to schedule meetings with exhibitors. — (menareport.com)
