Deals Worth US$32 Billion Announced During Singapore Airshow 2014

Singapore Airshow 2014 wrapped up the trade

segment of the six-day event with deals announced worth US$32

billion, surpassing the value of deals announced in 2012.

Major

announcements include contracts for Airbus, ATR, Embraer, Boeing

and Rolls-Royce.

Singapore Airshow 2014 played host to over 1,000

exhibitors from 47 countries and 279 delegations from 72

countries. In all, over 40,000 trade visitors from 125 countries

visited the show during the first three trade days, compared to

some 38,000 in 2012. Of these, 33% were from overseas. 72% of

exhibitors from this year’s airshow have already reaffirmed their

plans to exhibit at the next airshow in 2016, underscoring the

relevance of Singapore Airshow as an essential platform to network

and seize opportunities in key markets in the Asia Pacific and

beyond.

The U.S. was the feature country at Singapore

Airshow 2014, marking its largest presence at the show with 163

U.S. companies, including 111 in the U.S. Pavilion.
U.S.

Ambassador to Singapore, Kirk Wagar, said, “The U.S. was delighted

to be Feature Country, the first-ever such designation, at the

Singapore Airshow. We would like to thank the Government of Singapore, Experia Events, Kallman Worldwide and all of those

involved in the Feature Country effort. The largest number of U.S.

companies exhibited this year, 163, and they are reporting a very

successful Airshow. A large delegation of high level U.S.

officials had numerous productive bilateral meetings with our

counterparts throughout the region. Last but not least, U.S.

military and commercial aircraft provided for the show, including

the V-22 Osprey, C-17, P-8, Boeing 787, Gulfstream 650 and many

others received enormous interest from airshow visitors.” [watch

Tom Kallman, president and CEO of Kallman Worldwide, the U.S.

representative of the Singapore Airshow coordinating the U.S.

participation and organising the U.S. Pavilion, said, “This has

been the greatest Singapore Airshow for Kallman Worldwide and our

pavilion. The visitors here are serious about seeking American

technology, quality – and potential partners. These are the

customers that change business for our exhibitors – and the reason

so many American businesses of all sizes come to this show.”

Sean Lee, Airbus spokesman in Asia said, “We were very pleased

with this year’s show. In addition to presenting the
A350 XWB for

the first time, we announced orders valued at almost US$ 15

billion, as well as the establishment of a new joint venture

training centre with Singapore Airlines. We were also pleased with

the quality of visitors to the show, which included senior airline

management representatives from across the region. This year’s

event has demonstrated once again that Singapore remains the

premier air show in this region, attracting an international

visitor profile.”

Mr Jimmy Lau, Managing

Director of Experia Events, said, “We are delighted that the

US$32 billion of deals announced at Singapore Airshow 2014

represents an increase in the value of deals from 2012. We have

also recorded strong visitor figures from an even larger number of

countries, underscoring Singapore Airshow’s standing as the

preferred platform for high-level government delegations and

industry leaders to come together, network, address challenges

facing the aerospace industry and do business, all in one

convenient location.”

Singapore Airshow 2016 will be

held from 16 to 21 February at Changi Exhibition Centre.
