Being the leader of aerospace sector, TAI is pleased to support this organization, held in the center of defense & aerospace industry in Ankara, Turkey. When the growing regional and global importance as well as the distance-fold in the fields of defence, aviation and space in recent years is considered, Turkey has become a major player in the sector. In this context, I believe that the Turkish defence and aerospace companies will provide the maximum benefit from the synergy that will occur during the organization.
