Digital transformation and big data digitalisation: the step towards a more sustainable future

08 February 2022

Data collection and processing are essential practices to interpret and understand everyday life in order to work, communicate and live better. They are the raw materials for industrial digitalisation, for the evolution of the country and to design a sustainable future for the planet.

 

Data, numbers, codes, information, knowledge. With skills, technologies and infrastructure, Leonardo is at the heart of the digital transformation to drive development, security and sustainability through an accurate process of data-driven decision-making.

Focusing on the exploitation of data and the so-called data-driven economy to strengthen the company's core activities, Leonardo is improving its technological and product competitiveness also through the Genoa Hub for Industrial Digitalisation launched on 1 December 2021.

The key to accelerating digitalisation lies in supercomputing: the ability to process huge amounts of data and to do it quickly. Genoa is home to davinci-1, one of the most powerful supercomputers in the Aerospace, Defence and Security sector. The Hub's main competences are:

  • High Performance Computing
  • Cloud
  • Big data
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Cyber security and cyber resilience
  • Urgent computing
  • Robotics.
