The 18th edition of the Dubai Airshow will take place from 13 to 17 November 2023 at Dubai World Central (DWC).

The Dubai Airshow will be themed around space exploration as a key component of growth for individual countries and the aerospace industry.

According to the statement, Dubai Airshow and the UAE Space Agency are working together to increase this year’s offerings by enhancing the event’s focus on space, following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two parties.

Mr. Ibrahim Al Qasim, Deputy Director-General of the UAE Space Agency, and Mr. Salem Humaid Al Marri, Director-General of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), will assume duties as part of the Dubai Airshow Advisory Board.

Mr. Al Qasim stated that, “The UAE has made great strides in building national capabilities in earth observation, training astronauts, sending missions to the moon and soon to the asteroid belt. The most critical component in the next five to ten years will be building major private sector capabilities.”

The 18th edition of the event will also offer a host of networking opportunities through its Exclusive Ministerial and Space Delegation programs, connecting industry players with government officials, academia, and
