The role of the aviation sector in Dubai's economy will grow further in the coming years due to the massive expansion programs of airports, said Mr. Jamal Al Hai, Executive Senior Vice President for Communications and International Affairs at Dubai Airports during his meeting with Mr. Frederic Theux, President and CEO of Reed Exhibitions Middle East, and Mohamad Bader-Eddin, Show Director of Airport Show.
The meeting addressed many issues related to the airport industry and covered the preparations for the 2012 edition of the biennial Airport Show.
Mr. Al Hai said, "Dubai is the leading air transport industry hub in the region and has the capacity and capability of hosting exhibitions and conferences for the aviation industry successfully. This was supported by the achievements of the Dubai Airshow and our high expectations of success for the Airport Show, which will be held in May 2012."
Mr. Frederic Theux praised the support being provided by Dubai Airports, Dubai Aviation City Corporation and Dubai World Central. With over 160 international companies participating in last edition of the Airport Show, Reed Exhibitions, the organizing company, expects an increase of 15 to 20% in the number of exhibitors for next upcoming edition.
