US major OEMs and SMEs participate in Japan aerospace exhibition
FOLLOWING Japan's passage last year of a landmark law to allow "collective self-defence" of its allies for the first time since World War II, the opening next week of the quadrennial Japan International Aerospace Exhibition 2016, October 12-15 in Tokyo, is expected to herald a new era of cooperation and opportunity for aerospace and defence companies prospecting in the region.
As the world's largest supplier to commercial, military and space sectors, the United States is especially well-positioned to capitalise on the event with more than 40 American companies exhibiting at the show.
The centerpiece of the national effort will be the US International Pavilion, organised by Kallman Worldwide, Inc, the show's official US representative, in coordination with numerous government agencies, including the departments of Commerce, Defence and State, a company statement said.
The Pavilion will be a primary destination for buyers looking to meet US industry leaders, an on-site business hub for US exhibitors looking to maximise their exposure and impact at the event, and a forum for all to share industry information and insights.
More than 30 US exhibitors representing the industry's most innovative partners, products and services will be "open for business" in the Pavilion.
Ranging from publicly-traded stalwarts such as Parker Aerospace, Raytheon and Rockwell Collins to privately held small-and-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with fewer than 250 employees, exhibitors hail from 12 states, including one state pavilion - Washington - all looking to initiate or strengthen international partnerships that will generate new business and create more jobs back home.
"When US companies commit to exhibit at Japan Aerospace 2016, we're saying we believe in the power of this event to attract real business prospects and customers," said Kallman Worldwide president and CEO Tom Kallman.
"The Diet's passage of collective self-defence heightens the collective opportunity for our exhibitors to succeed at this show, whether as prime contractors or subcontractors in support of Japanese manufacturers, service partners and their end-user customers.
"The United States may be the world's biggest aerospace and defence supplier, but that's no guarantee buyers in Japan will look to work with US companies over others," said Mr Kallman.
"As the organiser of the US International Pavilion, we have a responsibility to advocate not only for our exhibitors, but for our nation in this highly competitive global marketplace.
One US exhibitor, Advanced Tech Supply (ATS), will capitalise on its presence in the US International Pavilion to bridge the cultural and high-tech manufacturing gaps between the US and Japan as a business advantage for Japanese customers.
