ABU DHABI, 11 February 2005 — The Boeing Company, described as the largest aerospace company in the world, is participating in the 7th International Defense Exhibition and Conference (IDEX).
Some of the Boeing highlights at this year’s IDEX exhibition include static demonstrations of air-to-air refueling, network centric solutions and an exhibit of Boeing products and services.
“Participating in IDEX allows us to continue our dialogue not just with our direct customers, but also other key stakeholders around the region and allows us to work more effectively now and in the future,” said Boeing Middle East Ltd. President Marcus Hurley. “Our objective is to continue working closely with these customers to provide long-term solutions and enhance security across the region.”
Through its Integrated Defense Systems unit, Boeing offers Arab customers the best solutions, systems, services and innovation. These will enable customers to operate effectively in a future where new technologies and their applications will play a pivotal role.
Boeing recently announced its 2004 financial results, which showed an increase in IDS revenues to $30.5 billion from $27 billion in 2003.
With a strong and positive relationship with its customers for over 60 years, Boeing is committed to developing and expanding a wide range of complimentary business opportunities with partners, customers and suppliers.
Boeing is transforming from a hardware and platform provider to a solutions and systems provider and from an international exporter to a truly global enterprise.
The goal is to be a broad, balanced aerospace and defense company with an emphasis on speed and agility, which allows us to respond effectively to our customers’ requirements.
