#WeAreLeonardo, discovering artificial intelligence with Marina

30 January 2025

Marina Geymonat, Head of the Artificial Intelligence Lab, recounts the academic and professional path that led her to Leonardo and the crucial role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the Group's innovative projects.

Marina Geymonat joined Leonardo with the aim of leading the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, within Leonardo Innovation Labs, and was immediately fascinated by the complexity of the projects and the technological level of the company. “Here you can delve vertically into a topic, working closely with very experienced people, but also explore technology in general, finding connections between different fields.”

Thinking back on the projects she followed in the last few months, three particularly inspired her. The integration of Large Language Models to business processes, aiming to facilitate them and improve their effectiveness. The application of the potential of artificial intelligence to satellites, with the aim of monitoring natural phenomena in real time and opening up new perspectives for emergency management. The use of AI in aerodynamic simulation, designing lightweight and resistant materials that improve energy efficiency and sustainability.

According to Marina, at Leonardo each person can put themselves, their creativity, and their point of view at the service of innovation, “Here I have found the same spirit that has always driven me: the possibility of taking theory instruments and using them to improve the quality of work. For those who like to learn and test themselves, it is a great playground.”
