“Russian Hour” at the Paris Air Show

“Russian Hour” at the Paris Air Show: “International collaboration of Russian aircraft manufacturers. Suppliers and finalists” 

“OEM & Suppliers – Russian capabilities for global benefits”

16th July, 3:15 to 6 pm
Room 2 in the Conference center

The Russian Helicopter Industry Association along with the Russian Exhibition Systems corporation have established the fine tradition of holding a conference titled «Russian Hour» at the annual American Heli-Expo exhibition. It’s an event at which current issues of international collaboration in the Russian aviation industry are discussed, and has been held since 2009. This year our Russian Hour makes its dèbut at the Paris Air Show.

The international aviation industry is developing higher and higher requirements for production, development companies and manufacturers, which increases the complexity of the supply chain, and raises the level of technological, financial and project risks.

When we bear global trends in mind, it’s vital for market players to find new opportunities for collaboration.

Today Russia is making firm strides in the sphere of international collaboration. Key production for the civil aviation market are being developed in close cooperation with international partners. Russian industry is represented at all tiers of supply and throughout the value chain. Corporations are actively building European standards into their designs, into the standards of their manufacturing processes and into their quality control systems.

The model for the Russian aviation industry means that local manufacturing suppliers are oriented towards global markets, integrated into international chains of suppliers, take part in risk-sharing programs, and have introduced best international practice in their design and manufacturing processes. The Government, in its turn should direct its efforts into multi-directional support for initiatives on the international market.

The Organisers:

Russian Exhibition Systems, Russian Machines with the support of the Trade & Industry Ministry of the Russian Federation. General sponsor – State Corporation Russian Helicopters.
