Upcoming Trade Shows in Switzerland for Aerospace, Airport Technology

Switzerland has quietly but steadfastly been building a robust aerospace industry over the last 50 years. The industry is thriving as the country boasts over 500 companies in the aerospace sector and provides employment for around 160,000 specialists and workers. One of the standout sectors propelling this growth is business aviation. Switzerland is rapidly emerging as a hub for corporate travel driven by an increasing number of business trips. The country ranks third in Europe when it comes to registered jets and specialized firms in business aviation. This surge in corporate air travel has led to a high demand for Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) services, avionics upgrades and interior refurbishments, offering lucrative opportunities for local businesses. Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul is a vital part of the Swiss aerospace landscape with around 100 licensed companies catering to both private aviation and airlines. Notably, two industry giants, SR Technics (specializing in airlines) and Jet Aviation (specializing in private aviation), play a central role in this space. For those looking to venture into the aerospace industry in Switzerland, numerous opportunities are available. The range of products and services spans from repair works to interior refurbishments and avionics retrofits. Highly trained and licensed personnel in the Swiss aerospace sector ensure top-notch quality and innovation. Despite not being part of the European Union, Switzerland has established strong business ties with its European counterparts. The country adheres to its own rigorous standards and regulations, often mutually recognized within the European Community. This makes the country more than an attractive destination for aerospace business. Switzerland's aerospace industry is without a doubt a significant participant in the global aerospace industry. With its knowledge in precision engineering and commitment to quality, it’s a sector that’s not just defying its size but also soaring to new heights in the global aerospace arena.
