Business Connect Programme
A world of networking opportunities
Making Connections that Matter
The Airport Show's renowned Business Connect Programme offers a premier platform for international airport suppliers to meet the regional industry leaders involved in sourcing and innovating over $260 billion airport projects across the MEASA region.
The Buyers' Club powered by Business Connect gathers airport officials and aviation authorities under one roof every year. Buyers and leading aviation companies are offered a variety of exclusive services designed just for vetted attendees. The following are some of the options available to buyers: VIP Guided Tours that provide individualised exploration, Technical Tours that help with informed decision-making, informal Meet-and-Greet Sessions that link buyers with international pavilions, efficient Speed Networking that allows for targeted interactions, and a Buyer's Lounge that enables expanded networking opportunities.
*Registrations for the Business Connect Programme are subject for approval by the Airport Show team.
With over 200 global companies and 150 buyers from 20 countries in attendance, the Airport Show's Business Connect Programme provides aviation industry participants with an unparalleled networking opportunity. The programme's record of arranging 3,278 meetings in 2023 is a testament to its exceptional performance.
Recommendations are sent by email based on mutual interests, and users can use the online platform to pre-book meetings in advance, join networking sessions at the event, and keep updated using the new website’s Content Hub.

For me it is the best Airport Show. I found state of the art technology and equipment I communicated with excellent consultants companies. It's excellent and pave my way in diverse areas and this will improve my consultancy services for Sudan airports (civil and military).
