Aero India 2017, Aerospace and Defense Industry

Day 1

World’s second largest air show has taken off in style today at Bangalore, with exhibitors from across the globe taking part in this biennial event. India’s growing stature as the largest defense exporter has created a lot of buzz in the MNCs in this industry.
We are present at Aero India to network, interact and collaborate with our customers, partners and others actors in the A&D ecosystem. For the first time, we are making an attempt to create our own brand identity at Aero India and hence have set-up our own booth – thanks to marketing team for their efforts. A lot of care was taken in each and every aspect of booth branding, with a lot of emphasis on our new identity #3DEXPERIENCE.
French Ambassador, Mr. Alexandre Ziegler visited our booth and showed a lot of interest in Additive manufacturing initiatives. Subsequently, we were visited by many customers OFB, DRDO, SAFRAN, AIRBUS and KAMOV, and our team had showcased our wide portfolio of solutions.

Please keep watching this space as we bring to you the daily highlights, updates of Aero India 2017.
