Total 133 organizations, 2500 people with 30+ companies with AS9100 cert.

In order to increase the number of component manufacturers HAIF launched the Aerospace Supplier Initiative Programme in December 2004. Mainly automotive and ICT component manufacturers were invited to the programme.

In March 2006 HAIF initiated and organized the establishment of

the Hungarian Aerospace Cluster. Now it has 25 membersIn 2008/09 HAIF launced an AS9100 Quality Mgmt program for 30+ SMEs, mainly members of HAC
