AIRTEC Augsburg – International Supplier Fair for Aerospace Technology

Shaping the future: Technologies for the next generation of aviation

AIRTEC in Augsburg is a leading international B2B trade fair for the aerospace supply industry. Every year, it brings together a highly specialized audience from across the entire value chain: from OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to engineering specialists, start-ups, investors, and research institutes. With its clear focus on innovation and sustainability, AIRTEC is a platform for technological visions, economic impetus, and strategic partnerships. The trade fair sees itself as a central interface for everyone involved in the development of sustainable, climate-neutral aviation and aerospace solutions. Experts from the fields of aviation technology, aerospace, advanced air mobility, and new space come together in the modern halls of the Augsburg Exhibition Center—an ideal location for dialogue about the mobility of tomorrow.

Broad spectrum of technologies—from materials to mobility solutions

The range of topics covered by AIRTEC is diverse and highly topical: solutions will be presented in the fields of lightweight construction, composite materials, additive manufacturing, hydrogen technology, e-propulsion, avionics, sensor technology, satellite technology, and unmanned aerial systems. Innovative start-ups in the field of urban air mobility and New Space will also have their own stage. The trade fair thus not only covers classic segments of aviation, but also opens up new markets, applications, and business models. Modular system solutions, sustainable manufacturing processes, and integrative concepts for emission-free mobility are particularly in demand.

Trade fair meets conference: networking knowledge, accelerating innovation

Parallel to the exhibition, a high-caliber conference program will take place, focusing on current issues and technological trends. In numerous panels, lectures, and discussion rounds, leading minds from industry, research, and politics will speak on topics such as zero-emission aviation, digital manufacturing, circular economy in aviation, and resilient supply chains. The combination of trade fair and conference creates a valuable transfer of knowledge and promotes networking between companies, research projects, and international market participants.

Business networking and targeted exchange

A special feature of AIRTEC is the quality of the professional exchange. The event is clearly aimed at decision-makers, project managers, and development teams. Matchmaking opportunities, business lounges, and topic-specific networking formats enable personal discussions on an equal footing – whether to initiate projects, launch new technologies, or transfer knowledge between established companies and start-ups.

Focus on start-ups, New Space, and advanced mobility

With dedicated areas for young companies and disruptive technologies, AIRTEC provides strong impetus for the transformation of aviation. Whether satellite-based infrastructure, electric air taxis, or data-based air traffic control – the trade fair shows how pioneering spirit, technology, and market opportunities come together. It also highlights how the aerospace industry is increasingly intertwined with topics such as digitalization, autonomous flying, and sustainable value creation.

Sustainability as a guiding principle

A sustainable aviation industry is inconceivable without ecological responsibility. AIRTEC focuses on solutions that aim to conserve resources, improve energy efficiency, and reduce CO₂ emissions. Whether through new materials, alternative propulsion systems, or recyclable product designs, the trade fair provides concrete answers to the requirements of a climate-neutral industry.

Augsburg as an innovative location for high-tech trade fairs

The choice of Augsburg as a location is strategically astute: with its long-established aviation industry, strong universities, and modern trade fair infrastructure, the city offers optimal conditions for a future-oriented trade fair such as AIRTEC. Its central location in southern Germany and proximity to technology centers in Munich, Ulm, and Friedrichshafen make Augsburg the ideal meeting place for international trade visitors. Anyone interested in other trade fairs in the region—in sectors such as industry, health, technology, or sustainability—will find a comprehensive overview of the regional event portfolio at Messe Augsburg.

AIRTEC – Connecting the future through technology

With its clear focus on technological excellence, sustainable solutions, and global networking, AIRTEC is a must-attend event for anyone who wants to actively shape the future of aerospace. It brings people, markets, and ideas together – and creates a space where innovations become visible and tangible. Further information can be found on the organizer's website: www.airtec.aero
