In a proud moment for Aequs, India’s Ministry of Civil Aviation and the Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) have adjudged it the Best Ecosystem Accelerator at the Wings India 2024, a biennial event positioned as Asia’s largest civil aviation show.
Aravind Melligeri, Chairman & CEO, Aequs, received the award from Hon’ble Union Minister for Civil Aviation and Steel, Jyotiraditya M Scindia, in the presence of General VK Singh, Hon’ble Minister of State in the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, the Ministry of Civil Aviation, and senior MoCA officials.
What is more humbling and gratifying for Aequs is that it had the honour of being named winner in the category jointly with its long-time customer and the world’s biggest airplane-maker Airbus.
“We are indeed honoured to be jointly named for the award with Airbus, which sets the bar for performance and quality,” Aravind Melligeri said, holding the recognition as a milestone in Aequs’ journey towards manufacturing excellence and developing Ecosystems of Efficiency®.
Thanking customers, partners, suppliers, and all constituents of the ecosystem at the Belagavi Aerospace Cluster (BAC), he attributed the success to the spirit of partnership and collaboration at BAC, apart from the hard work put in by all Aequals, who have displayed a mindset of continuous improvement and delivering the highest standards of quality and customer service.
Airbus was the first to recognise Aequs for its unique approach to aerospace manufacturing by conferring the Airbus Innovation Award in 2016, which Aequs cherishes to this day.
