France to feature 10 companies at Airport Show

Business France will present 10 French companies to join the In-Person experience and networking sessions with airport professionals from the Middle East at the Airport Show running from May 24-26 at Dubai World Trade Center.

 Held under the patronage of Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, Chairman of Dubai Airports, Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group, the show will host a French pavilion focused on airport modernization & new construction projects.

In line with France’s commitment to take action in favour of a sustainable world and respond to social and climate issues, exhibiting companies will introduce how their solutions, empowered by a strong technological expertise, can reduce the environmental footprints, and how they tackle many current and future challenges.

Internationally, these values are instigated across the French industry thanks to la French Fab, THE label whose mission is to renew the industrial sector and committed to an eco-friendly approach as well as concerned about the common good.

In the region, the French airport industry is particularly recognized in the following sectors:
-    Ground Support Equipment (GSE)
-    Air traffic detection and tracking devices
-    Provision of software packages and dedicated IT solutions - technical training services (MRO, ground operations, pilots and cabin crew, etc.)
-    Airport access control - identity control, video surveillance, alarm system, image analysis, etc.
-    Dismantling and recycling of parts, modules and components


Willing to provide a wide range of advantages to Middle Eastern players, French companies will highlight, through their solutions, their ability to innovate in R&D, in co-operation with research institutes and universities. When it comes to training recognition, the quality of French engineers and technicians also leads to provide unique passenger experiences.

“It’s with a renewed optimism that 10 first class companies will represent France‘s expertise at Airport Show 2021. This three-day live event will be the occasion to share their knowledge, develop valuable partnerships and present innovative technologies, thus bringing the most advanced aviation facilities to the region,” commented Frederic Szabo, Managing Director, Business France Middle East.

Before the pandemic, the turnover of the French airport sector represented €63.5 billion globally, while in France the sector consisted of 530 companies employing approximately 10,0000 people.
