Framework Agreement Signals Green Light for ILA Berlin 2024

Pioneering Aerospace – that will be the slogan of Internationale Luft- und Raumfahrtausstellung (ILA) when it takes place next year at Berlin-Brandenburg Airport in the heart of Europe. 
 
From June 5 to 9, 2024 at #ILABerlin, the focus will be entirely on the future and fascination of aerospace. 
The leading trade show for sustainability, new technologies and innovation is the platform where the international industry, policymakers, the armed forces, research and science gather to exchange views. 
 
Energy Transition
Among the key topics will be climate-neutral aviation and the energy transition in the skies. 
With its trade show segments Aviation, Space, Defence & Security and Suppliers, ILA mirrors the entire value chain of this high-tech sector. 
All five partners have now paved the way for holding ILA 2024: the Senate Department for Economics, Energy and Public Enterprises of the Land of Berlin, the Ministry for Economic Affairs, Labour and Energy of the Land of Brandenburg, Flughafen Berlin-Brandenburg GmbH, the German Aerospace Industries Association and Messe Berlin GmbH have signed a corresponding framework agreement. 
The parties also underline the importance of #ILABerlin for the Berlin/Brandenburg region and that of Germany as a place for business and innovation. 
 
ILA features the entire value chain and every tier of the aerospace industry, from Aviation, Space and Defence & Support, to Advanced Air Mobility and the Supplier sector. 
The guiding question is how the transformation of civil aviation to climate neutrality can be achieved. 
 
Space Pavilion
The unique Space Pavilion showcases the vital contribution of space travel for life on Earth — from climate protection and digitalisation to security and mobility. 
The Advanced Air Mobility exhibition is dedicated to the entire spectrum of unmanned aerial systems and electrically powered vertical take-off and landing vehicles (eVTOLs). In the International Supplier Center (ICS), the deep-rooted supply chain meets buyers from OEMs and tier-1 suppliers.
 
In 2022, ILA Berlin welcomed around 72,500 visitors, 550 exhibitors from 80 countries, and 800 journalists, who reported on site. 
The programme of the novel five ILA STAGES featured 360 speakers in expert talks, panel discussions, debates, and science slams on the future trends in aerospace. 
With the CareerHub, ILA brought together students, young professionals, and experienced professionals, thereby providing meaningful networking and career progression opportunities, and helping aspiring pioneers prepare for a career in the exciting world of aviation and aerospace.
 
‘Leading Showcase’
“ILA is the leading showcase for the aerospace sector in Germany and of great importance for eastern Germany in its role as a high-tech hub for the industry,“ stated Stephan Schwarz, Senator for Economics, Energy and Public Enterprises in Berlin. “With its many innovative companies and leading research institutes, the metropolitan region of Berlin/Brandenburg is a big aerospace player. That applies particularly to civil aviation which is the focus of ILA. We are pioneers in the development of new low-emissions technologies and also set new standards at international level, from which the entire business region benefits.”
 
Jörg Steinbach, Minister for Economic Affairs, Labour and Energy of the Land of Brandenburg, noted: “The Berlin/Brandenburg region is home to international aerospace groups, Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) from this sector and numerous suppliers who are dedicated to taking on the challenge of sustainable aviation. Brandenburg has an outstanding reputation particularly in turbine technology. Our aerospace industry is highly innovative — that is something it can impressively prove yet again at ILA 2024. I am looking forward to the event. The signing of this framework agreement signals the official green light for this leading industry trade show.” 
 
Aletta von Massenbach, CEO, Flughafen Berlin-Brandenburg GmbH, remarked: “We are delighted to be able to welcome international representatives of the aerospace sector to the exhibition grounds at BER again in 2024. Over the five days of the event the capital’s airport will be the meeting place of this high-tech sector. With a special focus on sustainability, the Berlin/Brandenburg region will provide an important boost for climate-neutral aviation for the entire sector.” 
 
Meeting Place
”Taking as its slogan ‘#PioneeringAerospace’, #ILABerlin is the meeting place of the international aerospace sector,“ said Volker Thum, Managing Director of the German Aerospace Industries Association. ”In 2024, ILA will again be showcasing the future and fascination of flying — which is climate-neutral, low-noise and highly innovative. Europe’s leading aerospace exhibition shows how space exploration benefits our everyday lives on Earth. Security and defence are the basis of our value system which is founded on democracy and freedom.“ 
 
Dirk Hoffmann, Management of Messe Berlin GmbH, explained: “ILA is the meeting place for everyone who wants to find out about new technologies and innovations in aerospace. Whether industry newcomers or decision-makers from industry, politics and science — ILA Berlin provides the ideal platform for exchanging views on the latest industry topics, networking and establishing leads.” .
