Singapore Airshow Looks To Record Edition in 2014

Singapore Airshow organizers believe they can set new attendance records at the next running of the event, Feb.11-16, 2014 at the Changi Exhibition Center. Angelica Lim, general manager of Experia Events’ aerospace and defense group, told AIN about some planned changes, including new themed areas for simulation and security.

The records Experia is hoping to break are those for “the number of trade visitors, high-level delegations, static and flying aircraft, number of chalets and the overall space taken up,” said Lim. At this year’s event, held in February, visitor numbers over the four trade days reached almost 45,000. The 2012 show set a record for the largest-ever number of top-level delegations, with 266 from more than 80 countries. There were around 900 exhibitors.
