The U.S. Trade and Development Agency hosted the India Aviation Safety, Security, and Airport Infrastructure Reverse Trade Mission (RTM), which brought senior level aviation officials from India’s Ministry of Civil Aviation, Airports Authority of India, Directorate General of Civil Aviation, Bureau of Civil Aviation Security, and Air India to the United States to learn about best practices and U.S. solutions that can support India’s aviation goals.
India’s aviation industry is growing rapidly, and the government plans to invest $120 billion in civil aviation expansion and modernization projects over the next ten years, which presents tremendous opportunities for U.S. businesses. The itinerary included a Business Roundtable and Networking Reception for U.S. companies at the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) in Washington, D.C.
