The event embodies excellence, innovation, and international cooperation in the fields of aviation and space. Following the idea of the 55th edition of Paris Air Show to serve as a global meeting place for excellence and innovation, Akkodis is putting the spotlight on two major pillars of transformation in the sector:
– The integration of AI for performance through an interactive animation illustrating an optimization solution for aircraft maintenance, a helicopter cockpit simulator that makes it easier for pilots to get started, and a demonstration of a drone surveillance mission in the metaverse.
– The challenge of a sustainable industry – Manufacturers are not only focused on the decarbonisation of aviation, but also in the green and responsible evolution of their entire value chain, supply chain and organisation. These issues will be highlighted through several scale models of devices, 3D models and animations on tablets.
Akkodis is leveraging its strong technology ecosystem at the show. For example, attendees will learn how Akkodis and our global technology partner Microsoft are using AI technology to unlock solutions for the sector.
'In our second appearance at the Paris Air Show under the Akkodis brand, I am very proud to present the expertise and innovative spirit that our 9.000 employees in France demonstrate on a daily basis – they are shaping a more efficient, more connected and more sustainable future of aeronautics, aerospace and defense throughout the value chain.
