Airbus opens new cargo innovation center in Bangalore

Airbus has opened a brand-new innovation center in Bangalore, India. “Our innovation journey in India & South Asia started in 2016 when we set up the BizLab, an aerospace accelerator designed to speed up the adoption of technologies from startups for the aerospace and defense industries. Based in Bangalore and led by Siddharth it was the most successful BizLab for Airbus across the globe, and now it’s time to take the next step and transform it into a full innovation center,” said Airbus’ official post on Linkedin. The Airbus Innovation Center – India & South Asia will focus on industrializing disruptive technologies in specific focus areas such as decarbonization technologies (Green Hydrogen, SAF production, etc.), artificial intelligence, industrial automation, unmanned air systems, connectivity, space tech, autonomy, and more. We’re proud to bring together a diverse range of expertise to drive innovation and progress in the industry. The center will host partner startups, MSMEs, SMEs to work out of the Airbus premises, facilitating faster exchanges with Airbus stakeholders locally and globally. We’re excited to be part of the innovation ecosystem in India and look forward to working with our partners to drive innovation and make a positive impact on the industry. We can’t wait to see the exciting innovations that will emerge from this hub of creativity and collaboration,” the post added.
