Paris Air Show: Airbus opens up Skywise to tech partners

Accenture, Capgemini, FPT Software, IBM and Sopra Steria, have signed agreements with Airbus to become early adopters of the Skywise Partner Programme.

Above: Skywise partners with Guillaume Faury, Airbus Chief Executive Officer, Marc Fontaine, Airbus' Digital. Transformation Officer, Julie Kitcher, Executive Vice-President Communications and Corporate Affairs.
 
As part of the programme, these companies will benefit from dedicated training and certification so they develop more robust, richer applications within Skywise on behalf of an airline. Certified partners will have access to their own working space on Skywise and to additional platform features.

The Partner Programme builds on the exponential growth of the Skywise platform and aims to further accelerate innovation by connecting Skywise users with a global network of leading developers. As such, the programme paves the way for an open Aerospace 'app-store' to speed up the industry's digital transformation.

Skywise provides all users with one single access point to their aggregated and anonymised aviation data, enriched from multiple sources across the industry into one secure, cloud-based platform. The platform frees data from organisational siloes, allowing automated reporting, benchmarking capacity, and access to applications improving airlines operations and reducing their costs. The more data that airlines or OEMs share into the Skywise Core platform, the more accurate the predictions and models are for connected customers.
