CO-INNOVATION TRANSFORMING RELATIONSHIPS WITH CUSTOMERS AND PARTNERS With the emergence of more and all-electric aircraft, the very design of the aircraft is changing. This in turn encourages companies to team up more closely and earlier in the process. Tomorrow’s aircraft will electrify more functions and use new propulsion layouts, which means that products from different companies will be more interdependent than ever. For instance, power management will have to be increasingly shared, since a single unit may be called on in turn for engine starting, landing gear, slat and flap actuators, compressors for cabin pressurization, wing deicing, thrust reversers, etc. This type of evolutionary change is also transforming traditional industry relationships. Up to now, each equipment supplier tended to develop innovations in response to specifications from the aircraft manufacturer. Today, we have to start thinking “co-innovation”. In these new architectures, the best overall system is not necessarily the sum of optimized subassemblies. Aircraft and equipment-makers will have to work together much more closely from the outset to develop the highest performance overall solutions. A systems integrator like Safran will continue to offer aircraft manufacturers their choice of technology building blocks. But more than ever these basic units will have to be designed as part of a coherent whole, ensuring that they fit together seamlessly, deliver the requisite performance, and can be certified and used safely as part of the whole aircraft. This is a major shift in industry culture, one that is reflected at Safran. Over the last few years Safran has multiplied gateways between its different professions, entities and companies in terms of R&D1. Experts from all horizons – propulsion, electrical generation and distribution, electronics and avionics, etc. – are teaming up on joint projects. Open innovation, a performance driver More and all-electric aircraft are also at the heart of Safran’s open innovation policy. For instance, Safran is a contributor to IRT Saint-Exupéry, a public-private technology research center which is working on more- electric aircraft as one of its three main areas of research. Safran also signed a technological collaboration agreement with Alstom in 2017, under which the two partners pool their skills and expertise in electric propulsion, in conjunction with academic institutions and innovative small businesses. Another example of industry partnerships is Safran’s agreement with auto parts giant Valeo, enabling Safran to further expand its study of industrial facilities adapted to the production of electric motors. According to some studies, production rates for these motors would have to increase ten-fold versus the current delivery rate of jet engines. Safran Corporate Ventures, the Group’s corporate venture capital arm, is also contributing to this innovative aircraft electrification strategy. It has taken equity stakes in the U.K. company OXIS Energy, a leader in lithium-sulfur cells for batteries offering high energy density, and in Turbotech, a French startup founded by four former Safran employees, which is developing a range of innovative turboprop engines and electric turbogenerators for general aviation. 13 1 Research & Development, which includes Research & Technology (R&T), technology developments for specific programs 12 and innovation in general. 30 strategic partnerships in all areas of R&T, with: • Industry: Valeo, Alstom, etc. • Universities and research organizations: ONERA, CEA, CNRS, Georgia Tech, IRT Saint-Exupery, etc. • Innovative small businesses and startups: Turbotech, OXIS, Prodways, SafetyLine, Kalray, Cailabs, Diota, etc.
