ADS Toulouse is the French office for ADS, the trade association for UK's aerospace, defence, security and space sectors. The office has been established for UK companies wishing to increase their awareness and access to the French aerospace and space market.
The two-day program will deliver immense value-add to all delegates by connecting you with the key space stakeholders and company representatives from the Occitanie region. This event will provide delegates with incredible networking opportunities, on top of the curated B2B engagements that the ADS team are arranging with delegations from the Aerospace Valley Space ecosystem and Airbus Defence & Space. The site visits and briefings will provide delegates with an understanding of the economic and industrial fabric of the space sector in the region.
A French delegation is planned for the Farnborough International Space Show held in March 2025. This event, through the facilitation of engagements between the French and UK space communities, will build the foundations of a relationship between the two that will see further activity planned as part of the show in March 2025.
We look forward to welcoming you to Toulouse on this occasion.
