Aerospace & Defense Meetings-ADM Sevilla 2024 has already reached 244 registered companies from 26 different countries in this event that will take place between May 14 and 16 in Fibes and in which M&M Group will participate as an exhibitor at stand L5. These participation figures demonstrate the interest aroused in the global industry by this biennial event, widely consolidated in its twelfth anniversary, as the reference in Spain and the most important in southern Europe to explore business opportunities in the aerospace sector, placing Andalusia as a strategic point of a business circuit that develops worldwide.
Proof of this strength are the latest export figures of the Andalusian aeronautical sector, which have reached an all-time record in the first two months of 2024, with 642 million euros, representing a growth of 170%, almost triple compared to the same period of the previous year. With these data, Andalusia is positioned as the second exporting community, with almost half of the sales (42%).
The registration data of the seventh edition of ADM Seville counted up to 204 firms registered as exhibitors, of which 92 came from other countries. These are relevant quantitative figures, which are joined by qualitative records of maximum interest, since up to 75% of the registered companies with contractor profile (OEMs) are also based in foreign markets (36 out of 48), which reinforces the international character of the event.
Historic record exports 2024
ADM Seville comes to be held with a magnificent start to the year 2024 for the sector, which has seen how in the first two months it has already reached an all-time record in exports, with 642 million euros and an advance of 170%, almost tripling its figures with respect to the same period of 2023. All this after closing last year with 2,094 million in international sales.
These figures are in addition to the large numbers of international aircraft and business orders announced in recent months, which will translate into higher turnover, exports and employment for the Andalusian industry.
