Farnborough Air Show 2008 July 14, 2008

The show was initially established with one single goal, to introduce the British public the best in aviation engineering. Back in 1948, when the event was first held, only 187 exhibitors took part in it.

Initially Farnborough Air Show was planned as an annual event, however in 1962 it acquired a biennial format. This change needed to take place, because this year the show became an international event. Companies and people from all over the world were welcomed to share their products and innovation.

Farnborough International Airshow is the biggest, most internationally attended aerospace event in the world – a globally renowned showcase of aerospace equipment and technology. It provides the perfect venue for the world's civil and military aerospace suppliers and their customers to meet and discuss, finalise and announce their business transactions. Over $40bn worth of orders were announced at the 2006 show which is double the business from 2004.

Farnborough International offers a superb business platform and is an excellent environment in which to take advantage of the opportunities presented by the global aerospace market.
