HAI HELI-EXPO (Vertical Aviation) Exhibitor List

The exhibitor list is a map of who is actually on the show floor. With roughly 650 companies expected, no one can see every booth in four days. The list lets you shortlist the names that fit your mission, whether that is fleet support, parts sourcing, avionics upgrades or defense programs. Sales teams can also use it to plan meetings and split coverage across colleagues. It is a practical tool for anyone who wants to arrive in Dallas with a schedule, not a guess.

• Shortlist booths before you travel
• Split floor coverage across your team
• Spot suppliers by product category

Expect a wide spread of vertical aviation suppliers. Names like Bell, Airbus Helicopters, Sikorsky, Leonardo Helicopters, Safran Helicopter Engines, Pratt & Whitney Canada and Robinson Helicopter show the range, from airframes to engines. Beyond the big OEMs, the list usually includes avionics shops, MRO providers, composite makers, training firms and unmanned systems companies. Each entry typically gives a company name, booth location and sometimes a short profile. Treat it as a starting point, then confirm details on the official site.

• OEMs, engines, avionics and MRO
• Composites, UAS and training providers
• Booth numbers and company profiles

For sales teams, the exhibitor list is a lead source with context. A company paying for booth space has budget and something to promote. That makes it easier to craft relevant outreach. You can sort by product category, region or company size, then build call lists for the weeks before and after the show. On-site, use booth numbers to plan a walking route. After the event, follow up while the conversation is still fresh. The list helps you work smarter, not just harder.

• Prioritize firms with active budgets
• Build targeted pre-show outreach lists
• Follow up fast after the event

Procurement teams can compare suppliers side by side. The directory shows who is exhibiting, which makes it simpler to book meetings with multiple vendors in one trip. You can review engine options, avionics suites, composite parts or maintenance services without crossing the country. Bring a shortlist, ask about lead times and pricing, and check certifications in person. The floor also lets you see hardware up close, which is hard to judge from a brochure. Use the list to set a clear sourcing agenda.

• Meet many vendors in one location
• Compare specs and lead times directly
• Verify certifications face to face

Analysts and strategy teams can read the exhibitor list as a signal of where the industry is investing. New names, bigger booths and fresh product categories often hint at shifting priorities, such as advanced air mobility or defense electronics. Comparing year over year helps you spot which suppliers are growing, which are pulling back and which are entering new segments. The list is not a full market report, but it is a useful snapshot. Combine it with conference sessions for a fuller picture.

• Track new entrants and exits
• Spot growth in UAS and defense
• Compare year-over-year participation

The 2027 show runs March 22–25 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, Texas. Plan around the exhibitor list: mark must-see booths, book meetings early and leave room for walk-ups. The venue is central, with hotels and transport nearby. Wear comfortable shoes, because the floor is large. If you are exhibitor-side, use the list to see who else is attending and where you sit in the hall. A little planning turns a busy expo into a productive one.

• Book meetings before you arrive
• Map booth routes by hall
• Leave time for spontaneous stops
