Today and tomorrow (October 17-18, 2024), you will have the opportunity to talk to our team about Rheinmetall and its diversity initiatives, as well as your personal career with us. We are there to underline our commitment to diversity and equal opportunities. “The fair is very, very well attended and our stand is also regularly visited”, says one of the team. As the audience is mixed in terms of age groups and professional experience (young professionals, managers, etc.), the conversations take different courses. We are in the position to offer opportunities for each. Our team can see how the image of the defense industry is changing for female talent and that there are many great people interested in working with us.

Congratulations to all the managers who have successfully conducted their international Young Manager Program (iYMP) 2024 at the Rheinmetall Academy in Düsseldorf. The participant groups consisted of young managers from various divisions and countries who ran through the modules of the iYMP as an established learning and working group.  Each individual of this international groups with members from different cultures and genders will be a vital part in managing the diversity within Rheinmetall in a way that every team member will be able to give the best. The background of the participants from the different divisions enabled an intensive exchange of ideas and helped them to get to know the Rheinmetall Group across country and company borders. This connection will last far longer than the duration of the program. How is the group-wide part of the iYMP structured at the Rheinmetall Academy? The iYMP is divided into several learning nuggets. In the modules focused on the area of leadership, participants are able to gain valuable experiences of different leadership approaches and develop a common understanding of good leadership in intercultural setups. This is combined with intercultural sensitization and awareness of cultural values, working and communication styles, project- and business management skills. The young managers receive training in leadership styles and tools to help improve the performance of the team or network in a global matrix or network organization. They acquire hands-on knowledge of success factors and leadership interventions in the areas of (virtual) communication and cooperation. The iYMP is structured in a way that involves significant contribution from the participants: The participants are involved in the co-design of core topics of the learning content, learning methods and their application in day-to-day management. The iYMP training sessions focus mainly on practicability. Learning methods such as dynamic simulations, role play with real time challenging scenarios can support the young managers in putting theory into practice. In individual and college coaching sessions, which take place face-to-face and virtually, the participants acquire specific knowledge for their present or future management role. These (intercultural) experiences will have a very positive impact on the participants, their teams and Rheinmetall as a whole. #rheinmetall #rheinmetallacademy #diversity #diversityconnects #culture #gender #leader

Rheinmetall subsidiary YardStick Robotics GmbH, which develops AI-controlled robots for extreme operational environments, and Rheinmetall Waffe Munition GmbH were awarded a supportive funding notification for the “RoX” research project for a total of €1.4 million. At the ‘Scaling Industrial Data Ecosystems’ event in Berlin, Robert Habeck, Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection, presented the notice to Klaus Kappen, Chief Technology Officer of Rheinmetall AG, and Domenico D'Agostino, Managing Director of YardStick Robotics. “RoX” is a research project funded by the BMWK with a total volume of €52 million. The share of the project volume for the Rheinmetall companies is €3.5 million. Launched in September 2020 and scheduled to run for 30 months, “RoX” has set itself the goal of developing a digital ecosystem for AI-based robotics with scalable and innovative solutions for practical implementation. YardStick Robotics relies on an efficient and cost-effective development workflow that is made possible by digital networking and model-based system development, as well as the use of artificial intelligence. This opens up access to customised robots and automation lines, particularly for small and medium-sized companies – for future-oriented and efficient automation in various industries. Looking into the future, this will open up a wide range of application scenarios for the Rheinmetall Corporation. These will be implemented at the site in Unterlüß as part of RoX, together with Rheinmetall Waffe & Munition and others. Already in spring of this year, YardStick Robotics was able to acquire a funding sum of €3.2m as part of the Manufacturing-X initiative of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK) for the Robot-X research project in cooperation with the Rheinmetall entities Pierburg GmbH and Rheinmetall Electronics GmbH.

Leonardo and Rheinmetall establish a joint venture aiming at forming a new European nucleus for the development and production of military combat vehicles in Europe. The companies had already signed a corresponding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in Rome at the beginning of July 2024. Rheinmetall AG and Leonardo S.p.A. will be equal shareholders (50% each) in the new company Leonardo Rheinmetall Military Vehicles (LRMV), which will have its legal headquarters in Rome and an operational headquarter in La Spezia. The definition of the agreement and the establishment of the company, which will be expected by the first quarter 2025, are subjected to usual regulatory approvals for this sort of operation. The primary goal of the joint venture is the industrial development and subsequent marketing of the new Italian main battle tank (MBT) and the new Lynx platform for the Armoured Infantry Combat System (AICS) programme as part of the Italian Army's programme for land systems. The development and production of other vehicles of this family, such as recovery, engineer and bridge-laying vehicles, is also planned. Both partners also expect their joint products to provide extensive sales opportunities in international markets.
