Europe must invest boldly in aviation research and innovation to safeguard its sovereignty, competitiveness, and resilience. That is the central message of the Aviation Research & Innovation Strategy (ARIS), to be officially handed over to the European Commission at this high-level event during the Paris Air Show. Developed by a broad coalition of European aviation stakeholders — and supported by the Clean Aviation and SESAR Joint Undertakings — ARIS sets out a bold vision for a sustainable, digital and globally competitive air transport sector.
