Abu Dhabi recently welcomed announcement of the inaugural edition of the Abu Dhabi Aviation and Aerospace Week (ADAAW).
The event is set to take place from 6-12 March 2016 under patronage of HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces.
The event will run concurrently in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain converging six trade, defence, entertainment, and sports components under its umbrella. The event is scheduled to become a biennial fixture in Abu Dhabi.
The ADAAW will also include the second Unmanned System Exhibition (UMEX Abu Dhabi), first Simulation conference and exhibition, third global aerospace summit, and fourth edition of the Abu Dhabi Air Expo, as well as the first edition of the Middle East aviation career exhibition and conference and the eighth Red Bull air race.
The event will seek to boost status of Abu Dhabi as a leading global hub of aviation and aerospace, business tourism and specialised fairs in aerospace and aviation.
Brigadier general, Rashid Mohammed Al-Shamsi, spokesperson for the UAE Armed Forces, said: “Bringing specialised events such as UMEX Abu Dhabi and Simulation Conference and Exhibition under ADAAW’s umbrella will provide the UAE Armed Forces with an opportunity to explore and acquire latest technologies in unmanned systems and simulation techniques.”
In addition to its significant direct and indirect impact on the emirate’s economy, ADAAW is eventually anticipated to attract more sector-related specialised exhibitions and events to the UAE.
