Thales EVP Yannick Assouad - "In the field of innovation, the crossover between civil and military works both ways!"

Jan 05. 2023  Yannick Assouad, EVP Avionics at Thales, has published an opinion piece on LinkedIn that focuses on how, in the field of innovation, the cross-fertilization between civil and military technologies works very much both ways, stating that "this duality has to amplify further in coming years, resulting in advances that will be crucial for all."

She explains how, over the first decades in the history of aviation, many of the sector’s key innovations were developed first for military purposes, before being adapted and deployed across civil aircraft. Yannick Assouad then illustrates the ways in which "today, the cross-fertilization between civil and military technologies works very much both ways, and if anything this duality has to amplify further in coming years, resulting in advances that will be crucial for all."
