 Editorial of newsletter - n°15 - June 2007Onera in India - and why not?
Though Onera is well known internationally for the quality of its research, it is less so for its contribution to the technological successes resulting from it. We need to foster this reputation, which is closer to industrial and economic realities, among local industrialists and institutions, and also among our French and European partners who export, by attending international trade fairs:
As the leading player in aerospace research in France, we must affirm our potential for innovation at world level and participate in international initiatives by getting our engineers to intervene in areas where their skills are decisive. Naturally, these activities will be developed with due respect of the export rules and our commitments to our strategic industrial partners. They are necessary at a time when these are investing massively in their globalization, including for research. Though the Russians, Israelis and Americans are trying to conquer these markets, the French and Europeans are not being left behind and our research has a duty to support them. Furthermore, the local main contractors and R&D players are not unaware of the quality of our work or the reciprocal advantages provided by closer cooperation with Europe and France, in particular. The aerospace industry's great future challenges and successes will be international and we are counting on being one of the players! Philippe Richard,

Onera's commercial team was present - alongside its GIFAS partners - at the AeroIndia air show, held at Bangalore in February 2007. This was not an isolated initiative; it is part of a promotional drive in the emerging markets: China and Singapore had already hosted visits by Onera's "Business Development" teams in 2005 and 2006.
