Within less than one year following the announcement of The Wings Valley launch at the 2012 Middle East Business Aviation (MEBA) show, Altran has not only designed a global, cutting edge services offering for the Aviation District, but also become the DWC representative for future players that will be involved in the MRO site, and taken on the role of overseeing educative programmes with international training institutions for qualified engineers, technicians, and managers operating in the related sectors of activity.
