    • UBM Aviation Exhibitions

      UBM Aviation's Exhibitions team are experts in providing focused networking events for the Commercial Aviation Industry.

      The Airline Purchasing & Maintenance Expo serves the MRO and aftermarket sector of commercial aviation and is the company's flag ship event, having grown to 200 exhibitors. The Aero-Engine Expo is the worlds only international, independent Aero Engine event, attracting Propulsion Engineers from all over the world. The newest addition to the portfolio is the Aircraft Maintenance EXPO USA, serving the North American MRO industry.

      If you are looking for a cost effective means of communicating with existing customers and generating new business through direct marketing, our EXPOs could be ideal for you. However, booth numbers are limited at these events and you are strongly recommended to book early rather than to risk disappointment. Attendance of the conferences held in conjunction with the Expos is optional. Please refer to the specific web pages for more detailed information on the Expos:
