HH SHEIKH ABDULLAH BIN HAMAD AL-KHALIFA

Chairman of BIAS Supreme Organising Committee & Personal Representative of His Majesty the King

It is a great pleasure for my team and I to once again look forward to hosting the Bahrain International Airshow’s 2022 edition. With a momentum that perhaps has never been as high, we are planning a show that builds on a successful track record while giving impetus to the industry’s recovery and renewal.

Our show is at the heart of one of the world’s fastest-growing aerospace markets; with a surge of aviation infrastructure investment having taken place in recent years, including most notably, the new Passenger Terminal at the Bahrain International Airport, which started operation in January 2021.

This, coupled with our location as the gateway to the Gulf, makes the Bahrain International Airshow a strategic event on the aerospace calendar.

With ongoing patronage from His Majesty the King, BIAS 2022 is once again a collaborative effort between the Bahrain Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications; the Royal Bahraini Air Force, and in association with Farnborough International, all of whom work closely with our partners and sponsors around the world to create an event that reflects industry demands and delivers success. The 2022 Bahrain International Airshow is a valuable, high-quality and unmissable opportunity to network, find new solutions and leverage opportunities. I hope you will join us in Bahrain and look forward to welcoming you.
