The Airbus Group (parent of Airbus, Airbus Defence and Space and Airbus Helicopters) is committed to help develop aeronautical industries in Africa, because it believes that this makes good business sense. For the Group, Africa is defined as sub-Saharan Africa plus Moroco (with Egypt, Libya, Tunisia and Algeria grouped with the Middle East). "We're here [Africa] to do business, but we want to support the African aeronautical industry, so that it will support our business, in the next decade," Airbus Group International VP Africa Vincent Larnicol told Engineering News at the recent Africa Aerospace and Defence (AAD) 2016 exhibition. "We want to support Africa, and hopefully, this means business for us."
