The German Aerospace Industries Association (BDLI) and its 190 members represent the interests of an industrial sector, which - owing to international technology leadership and worldwide success - has become a significant driver of economic growth in Germany. Combining almost all strategic key technologies, the German aerospace industry achieves a turnover of currently 24.7 billion Euros with a directly employed labour force of around 95,400.

The industry's results gained in research and development and its broad technological know-how are also used in many other industrial sectors. Thanks to its strategic importance and its large contribution to added value, the aerospace sector - unlike almost any other industry - creates and safeguards highly skilled jobs in Germany.

Communication with political institutions, authorities, associations, foreign representations in Germany is a major task of the BDLI. The association also offers a variety of services in Germany and abroad to its members. The BDLI is responsible for organizing the ILA Berlin Air Show.

The BDLI is officially accredited to the German Bundestag, where it performs specific, legally embodied tasks.

The BDLI is a member of the European umbrella organization ASD, AeroSpace and Defence Industries Association of Europe, and the Federation of German Industries (BDI).
