Connect and collaborate with the brightest minds in aerospace and defense manufacturing

As an AeroDef Manufacturing attendee, you’ll be able to:

• Meet decision makers and technical experts from companies who want to put the latest technology and processes to work in their organizations.
• Make new contacts, or cement old ones, at scheduled one-on-one discussions or ad hoc meet-ups in technical sessions, workshops and networking events.
• Hear industry leaders talk frankly about the future of the industry and your place in it.

You never know who you may meet along the way: That person standing or sitting next to you may connect you with the ideas, technologies or people you need to make your vision a reality.
