"With this initiative, we are going out to listen to Americans from higher education to small and large businesses to understand what basic and applied technologies will help us create the next game-changing inventions for 2030 and beyond."

The MAMA Delegation to the United States Air Force Science and Technology 2030 workshop at Indiana University was warmly received. The delegation presented six different new technology and research proposals that will help the USAF fulfill their mission objectives.

At $16 billion, India’s aviation market is currently the 9th largest in the world and is expected to be the 3rd largest by 2020, and by 2030, the largest. Over the next decade, the market is expected to reach 337 million domestic and 84 million international passengers. This growth will create demand for new aircraft, air navigation service technologies, airport security equipment, and increased infrastructure.

India is one of the largest importers of conventional defense equipment in the world. India imports approximately 60% of its defense requirements. This year’s capital expenditure budget of $12.72 billion has increased slightly from last year. We anticipate significant opportunities for U.S. exporters in the defense sub-sectors.

Mr. Shantanu Sarkar, Commercial Advisor in the U.S. Commercial Service office in Kolkata, lead a roundtable discussion of the opportunities for aerospace and defense companies who wish to take advantage India's rapidly growing aerospace and defense sectors.
