This event in cooperation with Rafale Industrial Partners viz. Thales, Safran and MBDA was to promote Business to Business (B2B) interactions between the French and Indian Aerospace manufacturers. 

In keeping with the Skill India plan of the Union Government, this B2B interface between the French and domestic Indian entrepreneurs aims to deepen existing links, create new opportunities of collaboration and work towards establishing a full-fledged defense manufacturing eco-system in India. 

The ambition is to develop a complete supply chain allowing the completion of the existing ambitious Rafale offsets obligations under the Rafale contract signed in September 2016(obligations representing 50 per cent of the total amount of the acquisition contract of 36 Rafale) and build a strong base for the success of Rafale under the “Make in India” initiative of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. 

As part of this cooperation between the Indian and French companies, Indian partners will benefit in a unique way from the technological know-how transfers opportunities while thousands of Indian engineers and technicians will benefit from massive skills transfer opportunity.
