Highlights from ILA Berlin - Pioneering Aerospace 1.    Prominent Presence of In-Space Manufacturing Companies Noteworthy is the significant presence of companies focused on in-space manufacturing. Key players include The Exploration Company, Voyager Space, Redwire Space Europe, and Airbus. The pioneering mission by Varda Space Industries seems to have inspired many in the industry, though I remain skeptical about the market size. Bioprinting, in particular, holds promise, yet a commercially viable product appears to be at least a decade away. It is evident that both Europe and the US are recognizing low Earth orbit as a commercial frontier, while space agencies are shifting their focus toward deep space exploration. 2.    Funding Shifts and Security Discourse I liked how one of the speakers said with regret that there will be less money for exploration projects in the future, because in the foreseeable future more money will be spent on war. This shift towards security and technological sovereignty was palpable. The European Union is acutely aware of the strategic importance of space for Europe's future security. The current situation mirrors post-Yugoslav war developments when Europe established its own GNSS. Today, similar efforts are underway with IRIS², despite the realistic expectations that the system will not be operational by 2027 and will likely exceed initial cost estimates. Plus the results of European Parliament elections will likely affect EU’s approach to space programs. 3.    Emphasis on Long-Term Space Sustainability A key event was the signing of the ESA Zero Debris Charter by over forty organizations, underscoring a commitment to sustainable space activities. However, the document itself does not contain the clause of deorbiting of space object within five years, which is already a commitment for European Space Agency - ESA missions. This requirement currently applies mainly when companies seek an FCC license, effectively making the five-year rule a standard since 2022. The Zero Debris Charter remains non-binding, but it reflects a collective aspiration towards a future free from space debris. 4.    Support for Light Launch Vehicles Europe is poised to support the development of light launch vehicles, with anticipated, albeit modest, returns of European launch capabilities this summer with Ariane 6 and LV from Isar Aerospace. This initiative reflects an institutional push aiming to ensure Europe’s assured access to space, however commercial prospects of these LVs remain unclear to me. 5.    Local Focus of ILA Berlin ILA Berlin retains a local flavor, with a limited presence of international space companies. I had anticipated greater participation from French, Italian, and British firms, as well as leading New Space companies from Lithuania (Kongsberg NanoAvionics) and Belgium (Aerospacelab). Nevertheless, it was a pleasure to meet the colleagues from the Berlin office of EnduroSat.

Aerospace companies and manufacturers supplying parts to the industry have embraced digital twin technology more rapidly than other sectors. In fact, 75% of Air Force executives consider it important. imaginX emphasizes that to achieve the next level of engineering productivity, speed, and quality, the aerospace sector must focus on analytics-driven productivity and the digital twin. While many companies are already exploring these areas, there remains significant opportunity to accelerate and scale efforts. #imaginX #XR #Aerospace #digitaltwintechnology

As we prepare for another engaging Farnborough International Airshow, it's clear that advanced technologies, especially generativeAI, are at the forefront of transforming the aerospace industry. These innovations are pivotal in tackling some of the most pressing challenges and driving significant advancements. It is important to note that this focus on advanced technology and AI is not merely about enhancing current capabilities, but it is also a strategic move to future-proof the industry, ensuring it remains at the cutting edge of innovation and adaptability. Let's dive deeper into these discussions at Farnborough next week and explore how we can collectively push the boundaries of what's possible in aerospace.  Hope to see you there! https://lnkd.in/gcQd6aSU #FIA2024  #Accenture #Aviation #GenerativeAI #Aerospace Julio Juan Prieto, Richard Hiller, Craig Gottlieb, Joyce Kline, Marco Addino, Eduardo Mozas, Jeff Wheless

We are hours away from the start of the Farnborough Air Show. Exciting times ahead this week for the #aerospace industry! This year we're moving beyond the proof of concepts to see #GenerativeAI deployed at scale, transforming everything from engineering to supply chain and aftermarket. With 53% of tasks in aerospace and defense ripe for automation or augmentation by #GenAI, we're at the brink of a major shift. Imagine Gen AI Engineering Assistants empowering junior engineers with complex simulations and data analysis, freeing up senior engineers for advanced tasks. Leaders in aerospace are not just adopting new technologies; they're redefining how we interact with them: 95% of executives believe making technology more human-centric will unlock unprecedented productivity and creativity, with 80% expecting a significant impact on business processes. As we integrate Gen AI across business development, engineering and IT, it's crucial to foster a culture of transparency and trust. Responsible AI is not optional but essential. By understanding and embracing these changes, our workforce is set to thrive in an era of #innovation.   So much to discuss! Hope to see you at @Farnborough International! https://lnkd.in/e3x72VPQ  #Accenture #FIA2024 John H. Schmidt, Legrand Julien
