ADS Toulouse Newsletter 21- October 2025

Dear all,

The end of the year wouldn’t be complete without our much-anticipated ADS Toulouse Annual Event — Celebration of our UK-France relationship. Once again, the 2025 edition brought together leaders from across both aerospace sectors for two exceptional days of dialogue, knowledge sharing and partnership building. From cyber security and operational excellence to sustainability and long-term industrial strategies, the event showcased the strength of our cross-border cooperation in building the aircraft of tomorrow powered by innovation and net-zero technologies.

With senior representatives from the ecosystem and amongst 300+ participants, the event truly reflected the depth of the UK—France aerospace partnership.

Our focus, however, goes beyond civil aerospace. Space cooperation remains a key pillar of our activity, with the upcoming UK Space Trade Mission to France (4—6 November) and the second edition of the UK—France Space Day further strengthening ties between our two nations’ space ecosystems.

Building on this momentum, ADS Toulouse continues to expand its European footprint. Before the end of the year, our ADS Toulouse members delegation will travel to Hamburg, engaging with local stakeholders and visiting key industrial sites in partnership with Hamburg — another step forward in strengthening cooperation across Europe’s leading Aviation aerospace regions.

Looking ahead to 2026, our focus remains clear: to support our members and expand our activities across France and more broadly in Europe, fostering collaboration, innovation, and excellence in our sectors, and helping build a sustainable and competitive future.

Bonne lecture,

Sincerely,

Marie-Margaux Honikman

ADS Toulouse Director.
