Day 2 of Aeromart Hyderabad 2026 combines a focused conference programme with structured B2B matchmaking, reinforcing its position as one of India’s leading international aerospace supply chain and innovation platforms.
Delivered by BCI Aerospace, the event is dedicated to aerospace supply chain, production, and innovation, bringing together global OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, SMEs, and startups in a highly structured business environment.
The event gathers major international and Indian aerospace stakeholders, including Airbus, Safran, Dass
Under the theme “Moving Forwards: Technology, AI, Developments,” the conference programme explores artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, industrial competitiveness, digital transformation, and the evolution of India’s aerospace and defence ecosystem.
The programme opens with the panel “Make in India: Competing on Capability, Quality and Scale,” (sponsored by Capgemini), featuring senior representatives from Dassault Aviation, GE Aerospace, Latecoere, and Axon’ Cables & Connectors PVT. The discussion focuses on how India’s aerospace manufacturing base is strengthening its position within global supply chains, emphasising quality standards, industrial scale-up, and long-term competitiveness.
Attention then shifts to digital transformation in aviation with a presentation by Airbus titled “Operations Research and AI-Driven Optimisation: Enhancing Efficiency and Robustness in Aircraft Maintenance & Ground Operations.” The session highlights how artificial intelligence and advanced analytics are improving maintenance planning, operational reliability, and ground operations efficiency.
The conference continues with a session featuring Aerospace Valley, focusing on the role of aerospace clusters in driving innovation and collaboration, and how structured ecosystems can accelerate technology development while strengthening industry–research–government linkages.
The programme also addresses “Challenges and Opportunities for Next Generation Aerospace Manufacturing,” bringing together leaders from Axiscades, Jayasuriya Aero, Raghu Vamsi Aerospace Group, Cyient DLM, and ICOMM TELE. The panel examines evolving manufacturing requirements, supply chain resilience, emerging technologies, and workforce readiness for future aerospace programmes.
The final session of Day 2, “India’s End-to-End Space Ecosystem,” features representatives from Ananth Technologies, Dhruva Space, and Apollo Micro Systems, highlighting India’s growing capabilities across the space value chain and emerging commercial opportunities.
Alongside the conference sessions, pre-scheduled B2B meetings are underway throughout the day, enabling targeted business interactions between qualified buyers and suppliers. More than 500 companies from 25 countries are participating, with approximately 8,000 pre-arranged meetings scheduled, reflecting the scale and efficiency of the platform.
This structured matchmaking model, developed by BCI Aerospace, is designed to maximise business outcomes by connecting participants with the right partners through a curated, data-driven scheduling system.
“Aeromart Hyderabad is a dedicated platform for aerospace supply chain, production and innovation, bringing together major OEMs and a wide ecosystem of Tier 1, Tier 2 suppliers, SMEs and startups.” said Stéphane Castet.
“We are proud of all of the major OEMs – Airbus, Safran, Dassault, Collins, Honeywell, Embraer, Adani and HAL – that are here to discuss opportuntities with all the strategic tier 1 and 2s, startups and SMEs over two days.”
“It’s the second edition of Aeromart in India. We’ve increased and grown by 50%; we have more than 500 companies from 25 countries, 8000 B2B meetings for the next two days. Now is the time of India to develop the aerospace industry for defence and the civil market. I think Aeromart is a good opportunity for all companies to attend and discuss with the right people and the right companies.”
Now in its second edition, Aeromart Hyderabad continues to strengthen its role as a key international gateway connecting Indian and global aerospace ecosystems through conferences, exhibitions, and structured B2B matchmaking, supporting business development, industrial partnerships, and technology exchange across one of the world’s fastest-growing aerospace markets.
