Canada-based global air mobility ecosystem provider Vports will partner with Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub (MBRAH) at Dubai South to establish the world’s first AAM (advanced air mobility) integrator world centre in Dubai.
This was among a series of deals announced on Wednesday – the second day – of the Dubai Airshow, organised by the Middle East & North Africa Business Aviation Association (MEBAA).
The other deals included RoyalJet and Honeywell signing a letter of intent to extend the current Ka-band connectivity services and the Saudia Private Aviation (SPA) signing an MoU with Redstar.
Saudia Aerospace Engineering Industries (SAEI) also signed four agreements during the second day, with Airbus Helicopter Arabia, Alpha Star Aviation Services, Ubisense and The Helicopter Company (THC).
These followed on from a series of day one announcements, including Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) signing a partnership agreement with Citadel Completions LLC to enter the ACJ Services Centre Network and MBRAH signing four agreements with Empire Aviation Group, Athena Security, Khaleej Aerospace Industries and Airline Support Baltic.
Ali Ahmed Alnaqbi, Founding and Executive Chairman of MEBAA, said the Show is providing a platform for the global business aviation industry to come together to build on partnerships and form new connections that will drive the sector forward.
“Organizations are looking at how they can incorporate new aircraft, technology and innovation into their current operations. We are proud of what the show has achieved so far and look forward to our final day tomorrow,” he said.
