Session Description

Software is reshaping aerospace and defence, with AI-driven simulation and digital engineering accelerating how complex systems are designed and delivered. In this fireside chat, Jacomo Corbo (PhysicsX) and Massimo Maroni (Leonardo) share how startups and primes can collaborate to make this shift real. From proof-of-concept to scale, they’ll explore what it takes to embed cutting-edge software into aerospace programmes and why these partnerships are key to the future of defence innovation.
