The global Space sector is growing and moving fast, with increasing strategic relevance for Europe’s technological and industrial autonomy. Lorenzo Mariani, CEO and General Manager of #Leonardo, shared his perspective with the Financial Times on the need to join forces in order to strengthen Europe’s role in this evolving scenario. "Without co-operation, European industries will never reach the critical mass and the capability to really be worldwide champions as an alternative not only to American companies but also as an alternative to many other players that are coming from the market," Lorenzo Mariani stated. In this context, the proposed project involving #Leonardo, Airbus and Thales aims to combine activities across satellite manufacturing, Space systems and services, representing a crucial step for Europe’s presence and relevance in the sector. Lorenzo Mariani also underlined that building a stronger European champion would benefit the wider ecosystem and help promote and protect the supply chain, especially as public and private investment in the sector increases.

#Leonardo has been recognised once again in TIME World’s Most Sustainable Companies, for the second consecutive year.   Developed in collaboration with Statista, the ranking assesses companies on three key dimensions: revenue growth, financial stability and environmental impact, confirming that sustainable performance and industrial competitiveness go hand in hand.   At Leonardo, #sustainability is not a standalone commitment—it is embedded in our 2026-2030 Strategic Plan and serves as a key driver of resilience, innovation, and long-term value creation.   In 2025, we expanded our long-term environmental commitments with two new strategic targets: • Over 86% of electricity purchased across the Group to come from renewable sources • Over 60% of material outflows are circular   This latest result builds on a strong track record: 16 consecutive years in the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices, with the highest #ESG score in the Aerospace, Defence & Security sector, alongside the recent publication of our Transition Plan 2026. Through this plan, the company is committing approximately €1.2 billion in climate-aligned investments by 2030, with 79% of Group financing linked to ESG criteria.   Together, these achievements reflect a path grounded in consistency and measurable results, aimed at creating sustainable value for stakeholders and the broader ecosystem.

On International Women in Engineering Day (#INWED), we celebrate the talent, passion, and impact of the women driving innovation across #Leonardo - perfectly reflected in this year’s theme, “Engineering Intelligence,” which shines a light on the creativity, problem-solving mindset, and courage women bring to tackling complex challenges every day. Nearly 5,500 of our female colleagues hold degrees or diplomas in technical and scientific fields, contributing to shaping the future of technology, and over 2,600 Leonardo women work in R&D and Engineering functions. Through their passion, expertise, and leadership, they play a key role in advancing innovation while inspiring new generations of women to pursue careers in #STEM. We continue to invest in initiatives that inspire, support, and empower women along their educational and professional journeys. This includes the cross-industry network, Women in Aerospace Europe (WIA-E). As members we are strengthening our commitment to inclusion across the aerospace sector - supporting professional communities and providing women at every stage of their careers with access to mentoring, learning, and growth opportunities. We are also pleased to celebrate Professor Fiona Clark OBE, Head of Capability, Electronic Warfare Sensors at Leonardo Electronics UK ,who has recently been appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the King’s Birthday Honours List 2026. This prestigious recognition reflects her outstanding contribution to the Aerospace and Defence sector, as well as her more than 40 years of dedication to advancing gender diversity, serving as an inspiration to women and girls aspiring to pursue education and careers in STEM. A powerful example of how leadership and empowerment can create a lasting impact in engineering.

#Leonardo and Baykar Technologies set a major milestone in the development of Crewed/UnCrewed Teaming (CUC-T) and swarm tactics capabilities, after successfully completing the first phase of live testing activities for the K-SWARM programme. The programme is aimed at designing and developing interoperability between crewed and uncrewed aircraft. Collaborative combat teaming has increasingly become a key enabler of future combat air systems, and part of the evolution of current generation fighters. Today’s design of Crewed/UnCrewed Teaming (CUC-T) is one of the fundamental strands for the transformation of military and security tools in all domains. Its’ importance is not only technological, but also operational, doctrinal and industrial. The testing was carried out in May at one of Baykar’s flight and test center in Çorlu, Türkiye. The flight test campaign involved two Leonardo #M346 airplanes - a Leonardo owned M-346 Fighter Attack Variant, with an Italian Air Force’s (Aeronautica Militare) T-346A acting as chase aircraft - and the Bayraktar KIZILELMA Uncrewed Fighter Aircraft. The first phase of trials demonstrates the solid partnership between Leonardo and Baykar, and their respective technology and industrial competences. It confirms the companies’ competitive advantage in the field and represents a concrete step towards the development of critical capabilities for modern combat air operations in multidomain operational scenarios. https://lnkd.in/e5yncKX2 #LDO_PR

In an interview with the Financial Times, Lorenzo Mariani, CEO and General Manager of #Leonardo, reaffirmed the strategic role of the Global Combat Air Programme (#GCAP), developed by Italy, the United Kingdom and Japan to deliver the next-generation combat air system. Addressing the potential participation of Germany in GCAP, Lorenzo Mariani highlighted the long-term benefits that a broader partnership could bring: “I would be glad if some of the German industrial complex joined our activities,” he stated, underlining the value of industrial expertise and investment capacity for strategic programmes. Lorenzo Mariani also outlined Leonardo’s efforts to accelerate its manufacturing capacity, through thousands of new hires, the expansion of production sites and initiatives aimed at reinforcing the supply chain. This plan is designed to support growing demand across the sector and ensure the execution of the Group’s key strategic programmes.
