BSL is Ready to Provide its Services to Turkish Companies and Military Customers

On the occasion of IDEF ‘23, 16th International Defence Industry Fair, Defence Turkey created an opportunity to have an exclusive interview with Russell MILLAR, Head of Business Development & Strategy at BSL and Erdem AKBAŞ, Business Development Executive of BSL, a Joint Venture of BAE Systems (49%) and Qatari enterprise Strategic Aerospace Services (51%) to understand the company’s goals and ambitions in exhibiting at IDEF ‘23.

Date: Issue 127 - December 2023

BSL can be better described as a professional services company, with a range of services centered on outsourcing of human resources and training. The company was born of a requirement stemming from the multi-billion dollar contract inked with BAE Systems by the Qatari Ministry of Defense in 2017 for the delivery of 24 Eurofighter Typhoon combat aircraft and 9 Hawk jet trainers. 

BSL is headquartered in Doha, but it gazes contemplatively on potential adjacent markets, including Türkiye. The company believes the short and long-term futures for the company are more than encouraging, presenting opportunities for measured, results-oriented growth and the continuance of excellence in the provision of cost-effective and efficient customer support.
