Dubai Airshow Materials

The 2021 Dubai Airshow was a strategic inflection point for Fortem’s international GTM motion. The goal was not just attendance. It was market expansion into a high-value theater where Fortem’s SkyDome System was increasingly relevant and where building relationships with sovereign defense buyers required a visible, credible presence.

I led the event strategy from a demand generation standpoint, with my team handling booth design, materials, and logistics while I focused on content direction and strategic messaging. The show was used to introduce DroneHunter’s emerging Group-2 intercept capabilities and to reinforce Fortem’s positioning as a Boeing partner, a critical signal to enterprise and government buyers evaluating long-term vendor relationships.

Beyond the tactical execution, the Dubai Airshow represented a milestone in my own evolution as a GTM leader: directing a team through a major international event while maintaining parallel workstreams, a discipline that separates operators from contributors.
