Pioneering Aerospace is the slogan for ILA Berlin. It started yesterday and will conclude on June 26.
How can aviation become more sustainable? When will the first human be set foot on Mars? What is the development of the European defense policy? Which innovations of the supplier industry revolutionize the aviation and space industry?
And how will the new mobility improve our daily lives? The topics at ILA Berlin are diverse and reflect the entire industry.
Airbus also means more than building aircraft. The German/ French airline manufacturing company and competition to Boeing also develop artificial intelligence and cybersecurity.
Together with another German company CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security, Airbus signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at ILA برلن 2022 to open a center of excellence for cybersecurity and trustworthy artificial intelligence in Saarland, Germany.
The “CISPA-Airbus Digital Innovation Hub” will be located at the CISPA Innovation Campus in St. Ingbert and will start operations this year with the intention to grow to around 100 experts within the next three years. In the long term, Airbus and the CISPA are jointly aiming to grow the competence center to more than 500 experts.
“Joining efforts with a renowned German research institution like CISPA is a key step in our strategy to continue strengthening our top-notch cybersecurity capabilities and expertise.
At Airbus, we are firmly committed to continuing investing in the technologies and resources of the present and the future, which will enable us to be at the forefront of tomorrow’s challenges, ever more digital. To achieve this ambition we are carefully selecting the right partners, and the creation of this competence center is a great example of our long-term vision and investment in innovation”, said Evert Dudok, Executive Vice President connected Intelligence at Airbus Defence and Space.
CISPA Founding Director and CEO Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. Michael Backes says, “The talks with Airbus were very trustful and constructive right from the start. Just like us, they want to reach for the stars in the future topics of cybersecurity and artificial intelligence and were looking for the strongest partner to do so.
The combination of our know-how, reputation, and excellent specialists will foster the creation of new opportunities to bring our research into the application through attractive and future-proof jobs in Saarland. After the establishment of our Innovation Campus, the now starting large-scale collaboration with Airbus constitutes a key milestone towards our overarching goal of creating 10.000 jobs in the next 20 years and thereby serve as the driving force for the successful structure change of the State of Saarland”.
The CISPA Innovation Campus currently under construction in St. Ingbert offers a unique space for established companies to settle but also for start-ups, which will get support for the financing and implementation of their innovative ideas with a new venture capital fund of 50 million euros set up specifically by the CISPA.
