nternational Aviation and Space Show, MAKS 2019, has ended the 31st of August 2019 at Moscow’s Zhukovsky Airport. The strong participation of Italian aerospace companies left a mark.
This success has had a great effect on the public and the specialized press, both because of the high number of Italian exhibiting companies, and because of their technological excellency lined up at the salon!
Gathered around the Italian pavilion, which was provided by The ICE Agency (the government Italian Trade Agency), was the largest group out of all the other western nations represented at the show.
Such an accomplishment has been made possible thanks to Aerospace Gateway’s commitment to extensively promoting and preparing for MAKS.
Aerospace Gateway is an Italian company whose mission is to assist aerospace SMEs when it comes to competing in the vast and turbulent global market. As such, Aviasalon – MAKS’s organizers – entrusted them with promoting the salon to Italian companies of the field. In the months leading up to MAKS, Aerospace Gateway, organized important promotional events, with valuable support from Cluster Aerospace Lombardo, Lazio Innova, Puglia Sviluppo and, especially, Rome’s ICE Agency. These events introduced many Italian companies to the salon – not yet widely known in the country – and to the vast Russian Federation’s civil aerospace sector, one that offers loads of business opportunities.
The outcome has certainly been exhilarating, in fact, the participation of Italian companies in MAKS, 32 to be exact, over 322 square meters of exhibit space, has more than tripled since the last edition; and all companies returned to Italy satisfied with the contacts obtained and the results achieved.
Surely, the MAKS 2019 promotion project carried out in Italy by Aerospace Gateway has been a great success!
