Aerospace – a leading innovator
AIRTEC, taking place November 6-8, 2012 at the Exhibition Centre
Frankfurt in Germany, is the global business and technology B2B
meeting event for the aerospace supply industry. It covers the entire
aerospace supply chain from design and engineering to materials
and production, components and systems up to lifecycle support
and combines a targeted exhibition with high-level conferences and
effective B2B meetings. With its special focus on the aerospace
supply chain, AIRTEC provides a focused and international business
and technology platform for the dialogue between fi rst, second
and third tier suppliers and to OEMs. AIRTEC is also a platform for
participants to gain and extend their knowledge of the latest trends
and developments in the aerospace industry.
Along with AIRTEC there will be a dedicated conference "Supply on
the Wings" from Tuesday, November 6, 2012 to Thursday, November
8, 2012 bringing together participants from industry, government
institutions and academia. The lecture program will combine
invited keynote presentations from renowned experts with contributed
papers to provide a forum for easy exchange of information
and interaction between the participants.
Under this year’s motto "Aerospace – a leading innovator" the
conference is seeking to attract professionals in the fi elds of development,
engineering, project management, business administration,
supply chain, production and manufacturing and related areas. The
topics addressed in the conference will cover all aspects of current
and future aerospace products.
Experts from all areas related to aerospace are welcome to contribute
to the conference program with their latest developments, new
products, projects and experiences. Major topics will be introduced
by keynote lectures, followed by 20-minute contributed papers,
including time for questions and discussion.
This forum is an excellent way to exchange information, to network,
to meet new and existing supply chain partners and to do business.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Frankfurt.
