ADS Group has announced that 61 organisations will be exhibiting in the UK pavilion during next week’s Paris Airshow, which totals 180 UK colleagues from across the sectors ADS represents.
For the first time, co-located in the UK pavilion is the start-up zone, run by Aerospace Xelerated and the Aerospace Technology Institute. The start-up zone includes 20 SME exhibitors who would not normally have the opportunity to exhibit at an event like the Paris Airshow.
ADS’ UK Pavilion is where visitors to the show will find world-leading innovative products and services from companies based in the UK. From a visit to the Pavilion, interested visitors will gain an understanding why the aerospace sector is such as source of pride for the UK.
The UK Pavilion showcases the best of the aerospace sector which contributes £10.9 billion in value add to the UK while generating £27bn in turnover, and delivering £18.6bn in exports while employing 108,000 people including 5,200 apprentices.
The return of Paris Airshow provides ADS with a valuable, and timely opportunity to engage face-to-face with customers, suppliers, and stakeholders against a backdrop of world-class innovation and technology across the aerospace, defence, security and space.
Start-up zone
During the Airshow, ADS is working closely with the Department for Business and Trade, as well as with Boeing’s Aerospace Xelerated programme, while the Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI) is co-locating more than 20 SME start-up companies on the UK pavilion.
The exhibitors are part of Paris Airshow’s ‘Star Me Up’ scheme, which will see start-ups exhibiting across the event, including a series of pods on the Aerospace Xelerated stand in the UK pavilion.
The organisations in the start-up zone include: Plyable, Aiber, AireXpert, Datch, Productive Machines, SensaWeb, Signol, Airline Pilot Club, Amygda, Flare Bright, LexX Technologies, Pegasus, TOffeeAM, AEROSENS, Aiir Innovations, Conductor Software, Dessia Technologies, NABLA Mobility, Quasir, Zetamtion.
ADS says the organisations participating in the start-up zone are at the forefront of innovation in the aerospace industry, addressing some of the biggest challenges, from reducing carbon emissions to improving aircraft safety and more.
