François Lepot, Président
Une vision pour Skywin
As we step into 2025, I am honored to address you as the President of Skywin,
This year, our industry faces significant challenges, notably due to the current tariff crisis that continues to hinder global trade. The aerospace sector, which we represent, is particularly affected by these developments, emphasizing the need for resilience and innovation.
In addition, the ongoing war in Ukraine and the shifting dynamics of American support have compelled nations to reassess their defense budgets. This situation presents a unique opportunity for our sector to step up, not only to bolster national security but also to ensure that we contribute to the protection of our communities. The increasing importance of access to space and airspace underpins our strategic relevance.
Amidst this unstable environment, it is crucial that we do not lose sight of our commitment to decarbonization. Our sector plays a pivotal role in driving sustainable practices and reducing emissions, and we must maintain our efforts to lead the way in this essential transformation.
These trials call for enhanced solidarity, coordination, and support within our industry. It is essential that we unite our efforts to navigate these turbulent times successfully. Our collective expertise and commitment to excellence will pave the way for transformative solutions that uphold our values and safeguard our future.
Let us embrace this year with determination and a collaborative spirit, as we strive to overcome obstacles and seize opportunities for the betterment of our industry and society at large.
