WHAT IS THE RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT ZONE?:
The Research and Development Zone brings together the very best in advanced engineering universities, Research and Technology Organisations (RTOs) and the agencies that support them, into one central area - creating a vibrant networking and knowledge transfer hub, at the heart of the Farnborough International Airshow.
The model is simple: industry and government sponsorship enables not-for-profit organisations to exhibit at the Airshow, at an affordable price.
The result: the creation of a ‘one stop shop’ providing a focal point for all the innovation needs of industry.
The 2018 event was a resounding success, with exhibitors including Innovate UK, Clean Sky, Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI), Universities and industry sponsors including Rolls-Royce and Thales.
If you are a University or RTO who would like to exhibit in the Research & Development Zone, please contact the Sales Team who will be happy to discuss with you. Click here to view the floor plan.
