Aerospace and defense leaders are facing a future that is both uncertain and constrained. Geopolitical conflicts and ongoing effects of the pandemic are destabilizing markets end to end. However, we at Capgemini believe that a future of uncertainty is a future of opportunity.

We see a future where executives can be visionaries, tapping into today’s innovations and technologies to utilize the convergence of products, software, data, and services. At Capgemini, we call this Intelligent Industry – the next phase of business transformation cutting across all facets of customer interaction, business operations, R&D, engineering, manufacturing, and supply chains.

We have selected five themes for the five days of Paris Air Show:
