The 2009 Asia Pacific Aerospace & Defense Awards will be a significant accomplishment for all of us at Frost & Sullivan. We are honoured to continue the tradition of recognizing the continuing efforts of industry stalwarts as well as the persevering quest of the emerging players in the Asia Pacific Aerospace Industry.

This event would provide all participants of aerospace industry, with the resources necessary to collectively grow their company. With access to intelligence, resources and perspectives from all participants of this Complex Business Universe, the 2009 Asia Pacific Aerospace & Defense Awards ensures that the industry stake holders are able to maintain a 360 Degree Perspective of their markets for accurate decision-making, mitigating risk, identifying new opportunities, and driving effective strategies for growth.

The awards would encompass the Airlines, Airports, Manufacturing, MRO, Aviation Training, Defense, General Aviation and Homeland security. The market information and analysis, across such a broad industry spectrum would ensure that the participants and the award recipients maintain a close eye on their markets, as well as on complementary and converging markets. This will further their efforts in understanding the views of the global industry analysts and thought leaders and to personally discuss critical growth issues and gain a more in-depth perspective on their market.

We at Frost & Sullivan will identify the outstanding industry achievements in the past year by top companies in the regional and global markets, developed through in-depth interviews, market analysis, performance measurements, and comparisons of market participants. We believe that such insights and information on the potential opportunities and disruptive technologies become business practices of tomorrow.

Although the Aerospace & Defense industry has grown to a very mature one over the last hundred years, yet it has never stopped fascinating us with the innovative best practices. The last twelve months of high fuel prices, increasing costs of factors of production and consolidations have made us pass through the red heat of the testing times which have not only left us more mature than ever before, but also equipped us with a basket of best practices. As the tradition continues, we will be recognizing and honouring the achievements of various companies and institutions in the arena of Defense, Aerospace and Homeland Security.

Today yet again, we stand with our valued industry partners in the Asian market place to recognize the efforts, commitment and diligence of diverse industry stakeholders within the aerospace industry. Let us have the honour of welcoming you to join us for the 2009 Frost & Sullivan Aerospace & Defense Awards.

On the same day 5 March 2009, Frost & Sullivan is also hosting the 2009 Asia Pacific Aviation Technology CEO Summit. Please click here to find out more about the Summit.
