European Aerospace & Defence Summit 2026
June 2–3, 2026
Düsseldorf, Germany
The European Aerospace & Defence Summit brings together senior leaders from across the A&D industry for two days of peer discussion on manufacturing, supply chain performance, and operational resilience. This year's agenda covers accelerating production ramp-ups, managing multi-tier supply chain constraints, driving cost efficiency, and sustaining quality across complex A&D programs — the same operational pressures Pelico was built to address.
Here’s what to expect
Building mission-ready supply chains through visibility, resilience and collaboration
Panel discussion | June 3 | 14:00–14:45
Moderated by Alexis Hartmann (VP Sales, EMEA, Pelico), with senior supply chain and procurement leaders from Astroscale, Nano Avionics, Beyond Gravity, Deutsche Aircraft, and D-Orbit.
- How manufacturers are building real-time awareness across global supply networks to support faster, more confident decisions
- What it takes to align suppliers around shared performance expectations and mission objectives
- How sourcing strategies need to adapt under trade policy shifts and geopolitical uncertainty
- The role of simulation in identifying vulnerabilities and validating mission readiness before issues arise
- How to balance resilience, reliability, and cost efficiency for next-generation A&D programs
