New Delhi: Aircraft maker Airbus will hold the meeting of its board of directors in the national capital early next week, according to an official. This will be the first time that the Airbus board will be meeting in India, a key market for the aerospace major, which already sources more than USD 1.4 billion worth of services and components from the country.

An Airbus spokesperson on Thursday said the company sees great potential in India’s talent pool, its thriving industrial ecosystem and its clear ‘Make in India’ vision.

Airbus, which has a significant presence in India’s civil aviation and defence segments, is also setting up two Final Assembly Lines for the H125 helicopters as well as the C295 military aircraft. Both FALs are being set up with Tata Advanced Systems Ltd.
