It was attended in person by senior political, military, and industry dignitaries, including the Dutch Minister of Defence Ank Bijleveld, and the outgoing Commander of the EATC French Air Force Major General Laurent Marboeuf, while representatives from the seven participating nations contributed remotely due to Covid-19 restrictions.
