09 October 2024

Speaking on the opening day of Cybertech Europe 2024, Leonardo CEO and General Manager Roberto Cingolani and Co-General Manager Lorenzo Mariani described the Group's strategy in terms of European alliances and highlighted its growth targets in the cybersecurity sector. This was reported by Gianni Dragoni in “Il Sole 24 Ore”.

“We expect double-digit growth in the cyber market over the next few years, with the aim of becoming a key European player focused on Defence, Space, and national and international strategic organisations.” This was explained by Roberto Cingolani, emphasising that Space is one of the crucial themes in the Group's strategic plan.

According to Cingolani, on Space Leonardo is benefiting from having been a forerunner, given the joint venture with Thales, with which the future “Space Alliance” is being discussed. The topic of alliances was also covered by Lorenzo Mariani, who confirmed the objective of signing the final agreements for the joint venture with Rheinmetall by the end of October for the development of the next land Defence systems.
