Dedicated UK Government Hub at Farnborough International Airshow

  • Share this page:

The UK Government Hub is a dedicated platform for multiple government departments and agencies to collaborate and provide holistic consultancy for UK businesses at the Farnborough International Airshow. This feature was launched by ADS Group, the UK trade association advancing leadership in aerospace, defence, security and space sectors, and Farnborough International for the 2024 edition of the Airshow.

Leveraging the two organisations’ respective convening power across political, industry and international stakeholders, the Government Hub provided the opportunity to reinforce and elevate an incoming UK Government’s backing for UK aerospace and defence businesses and international collaboration. The Government Hub operated cohesively with Farnborough International Airshow’s world-renowned international Delegations Programme.

In addition, the Government Hub highlighted the public sector support available to UK businesses and entrepreneurs and provided access to the support businesses need to startup, scale-up and create skilled workforces.

The Government departments and agencies with a presence in the UK Government Hub at FIA2024 were:

  • Department for Business and Trade
  • Defence Equipment & Support
  • Department for Science, Innovation and Technology
  • Department for Transport
  • Freeports & Investment Zones
  • Invest Northern Ireland
  • Ministry of Defence
  • UK Defence & Security Exports
