Open Innovation
For Leonardo, innovation comes in many forms. It is not purely based on the work of individuals, but also depends on the sharing of ideas and knowledge among many players, both inside and outside the company. These include universities, research centres, SMEs, start-up companies and customers.

We have proudly supported the Leonardo Innovation Award for many years. It is one of the most eagerly-awaited events for employees and university students, as well as recent graduates and Ph.D. students hoping to explore the new frontiers of research and technology.
