SAVIER Open Innovation is a flagshiop program to cover customer capability gaps with state of the art research demonstrated together on a real UAV ground station. Its goal is to • Help steer academic research to Airbus strategy and customers • Create a mixed community to solve customer problems • Bring our engineers to state of the art research, and scientists to our business • PhD students to on real systems, with Airbus mentoreing learning by doing
