Meet the Buyer Programme

For the 2020 event, the organisers have introduced a brand new bespoke matching system which will significantly increase the relevance of meetings and the compatibility between the buyers’ procurement requirements and the suppliers’ offerings. New software, plus direct input from buyers, supported by due diligence, means a much more strategic matching process.  

The organisers are looking to build on the success of the 2018 Meet the Buyer Programme where over 900 face-to-face meetings took place, resulting in £11.4m worth of business being generated over the two days.

Encompassing the entire aerospace and aviation supply chain, this year’s Meet the Buyer Programme covers:

• • Aerospace
  • Defence
  • Space
  • Security
  • MRO
  • Airlines
  • Airport services/equipment
