Held from 11 to 16 February, Singapore Airshow 2020 concluded with firm support from exhibitors and industry stakeholders. Despite concerns surrounding COVID-19, over 90% of participating companies were present. The four trade days saw close to 30,000 trade attendees from more than 110 countries and regions.
An expanded pool of more than 20 aerospace small and medium enterprises were presented at the Singapore Pavilion, coordinated by AAIS. Almost half of these companies participated at the Singapore Airshow for the very first time, encouraged by the wider range of space options under a new concept pavilion.
Providing a glimpse of the diverse and comprehensive range of competencies across our aerospace ecosystem, the Singapore pavilion featured SMEs that are making their mark in aerospace MRO and manufacturing. Capabilities showcased include parts design and advanced manufacturing, surface treatment and special processes, aircraft ground services, logistics, digital solutions and others.
