Africa represents a continent of vast
untapped opportunity for U.S. defense and civil
aviation suppliers. In the past, U.S. companies
seeking to expand their African sales could sit
back and wait for African buyers to find them at
industry trade events in Europe. That is no
longer an option. Instead, American
suppliers who are serious about gaining a foothold
in Africa are now proactively promoting their
solutions directly to regional decision-makers in
an African setting. And African Aerospace
and Defence 2010 (AAD2010), taking place in Cape
Town this September, is their venue of
choice.
The Department of Defence and the Civil
Aviation Authority of South Africa are inviting
U.S. companies to deliver their message and
demonstrate their products to the region's
decision makers and influencers at AFRICA
AEROSPACE & DEFENCE 2010
(AAD2010).
Set for 21-25 September 2010 at the
Ysertplaat Air Force Base, Capetown, SA, the
upcoming event is expected to again host 20
Ministers of Defence, Air Force, Army, and Naval
Commanders-in-Chief, and senior Civil Aviation
Authority leaders and buyers.
AAD2010 runs over three trade days followed
by two days open to the general public. This
allows for networking opportunities and
face-to-face business interaction. AAD2010 affords
exhibitors ample access to official delegations
and decision
makers. | |

Sub-Saharan
Aviation
Upcoming aviation projects and investment
opportunities are abundant in the sub-Saharan
African region, including SAAF heavy-lift aircraft
procurement, maritime helicopters plus more than

planning stages in 29 counties and 3 regional
economic communities. The timeframe for
implementation is over the next three years,

US $2.6
billion. All of the
projects present significant commercial
opportunities for U.S. aviation suppliers and
professional service firms. The project budgets
range from US$27
million to US$480 million and
include infrastructure upgrades at most
international airports in the region, air traffic
control and safety improvements, and a number of
