Airbus has to further increase its international footprint if it is to continue in its success at the European level. While more than 90% of our workforce is still based within Europe, our revenues from outside Europe have reached 69%. To respond to this internationalization, the company is increasing its global presence. The Final Assembly Lines in Tianjin (China) and in Mobile (United States) exemplify this. Beyond, Airbus produces helicopters in Brazil, manages research centres in Singapore, India, the U.S., China and and runs maintenance centres on five continents.

A LEADER AND DISRUPTOR

Curiosity drives us to define what’s next in aerospace. At Airbus, we leverage our scale and exper- tise with the nimbleness and agility of a start-up to explore unorthodox solutions to our industry’s challenges.

These solutions include electrification, the development of electric and hybrid-electric propulsion and one of the most promising technologies in the future of flight. Viable solutions will enable quieter and cleaner aircraft, and open up new markets and applications.

Urban Air Mobility is a key model of future urban transportation. Our projects include Vahana, CityAirbus, and Skyways, with road maps to bring these projects and the necessary infrastructure rapidly into the real world making science fiction reality.

Our design & digital factory programmes will make greater use of cyber-physical production sys- tems, and automation. Augmented technologies will accelerate design, assurance and mainte- nance phases, resulting in faster decision-making and improved performance and productivity. In these new smart working environments realtime information enables improved communication and efficiency, bringing benefits throughout the entire product lifecycle.

Airbus’ Connected Fleet & Data Analytics initiative harnesses and analyzes the wealth of data generated by our products, delivering insights and responses that provide value for our customers in real-time. We are using the connective capabilities of our products to deliver a new Airbus digital ecosystem with major impacts on operations, repairs, profitability, and productivity.

Airbus is using its core strengths and capabilities as well as its extended eco-system to deliver NUMBER OF LIVING PATENT FAMILIES WITHIN AIRBUS ground-breaking innovations. This includes our innovation outpost in Silicon Valley, A3, our global corporate venture fund, Airbus Ventures, as well as BizLab, a network of incubators accelerating 14,000 aerospace concepts from startups and intrapreneurs to quickly transform innovative concepts 13,000 into valuable and viable businesses. 12,000 11,000 10,000 Visit www.airbus-xo.com 9,000 to learn more about our latest R&D, innovative thinking and our partnerships and investment into new start-ups. 8,000 7,000 Visit www.airbus-sv.com 6,000 to learn more about the Silicon Valley outpost of Airbus. 5,000 Visit www.airbus-bizlab.com 4,000 to learn more about our global aerospace business accelerator. 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 6 7

ATTRACTING THE BEST TALENT

Jobs are important, and never more so than in these challenging economic times. About 134,000 people work for Airbus around the world. Despite its internationalization, more than 90% of these jobs are based in Europe. In addition, our jobs offer real value beyond the individual: For every Airbus employee, almost 2 jobs are supported in the supply chain. In total, we support more than 220,000 jobs in our home countries through spending with suppliers. Airbus employees tend to be highly qualified and possess valuable skills. For instance, 60% of our employees in our core countries are graduates. And we continue to invest in maintaining our position as one of Europe’s most recognised employers of engineers, graduates, technicians and professionals. To do so, we offer our people the chance to grow throughout their career: internships and graduate program- mes, improvement schemes to champion innovation, a network where subject matter experts can propagate ideas. Consequently, our employees identify themselves with the company – our low attrition rate of just 2% is just one figure that underlines this achievement.

€ 40 bn Airbus has become an important pillar of the European economy, and of the economies of the Airbus home countries in particular. Thanks to our positive economic impact in terms of growth, € 38 bn job creation and export, we not only strengthen the entire European aerospace sector but also improve the European trade balance. € 36 bn 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 As an architect and integrator of complex aerospace and defence products, Airbus takes a proactive approach to building sustainable supplier partnerships in Europe. In 2016, we spent more than 70 per cent of Airbus revenues on external sourcing, increasing our sourcing turnover to 49.6 bn euros. European suppliers continue to benefit with a lion’s share of 68%. By embracing SMEs as an integral part of the Airbus ecosystem, our spending with suppliers circulates throughout the economy and increases our total value chain impact through economic multiplier effects. Our long-term production ramp up of commercial aircraft in the next years will even further strengthen our suppliers, thereby contributing to the economy as a whole.

A very good example is how our supply chain benefits from the two European space flagships Galileo and Copernicus. For Galileo, Airbus and its suppliers contribute to the satellite manufac- turing, ground stations and the launches, as well as proactively support market uptake in order to deliver ready-to-use services, mainly for the various transport modes. This includes, of course, aeronautics and the new Air Traffic Management system currently implemented. Airbus strongly supports the Copernicus programme, which will position Europe as the world leader in Earth Observation for the valuable services being developed: in addition to the manufacturing of the Sentinel satellites, Europe tests in orbit the new high speed laser data transmission via the - pean Data Relay Satellites, and organises the outstanding amount of data dissemination to the end users.

In the future, the recent creation of ArianeGroup, a joint venture with Safran, will develop the next-generation European launcher Ariane 6 to ensure the success of the European space launcher business in the face of growing international competition.

GROW WITH CARE

At Airbus, our metrics for success go beyond simply our bottom line. Success needs to be environmentally sustainable and responsible. Naturally, reducing our environmental footprint drives many of our innovations and is part of Airbus’ core strategy.

We are optimizing eco-efficiencies across our products and facilities. Commercial aircraft such as the A320neo fly with a 15 per cent fuel burn reduction and with nearly a 50 per cent reduc- tion in noise footprint. Our H160 helicopter is more powerful than previous generations, while

reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. And across all our sites in Europe, Airbus is running the Blue5 programme, which supports the implementation of reduction projects for

energy, CO2, water, waste, and VOC.

At European level, Airbus joined forces with key public and private stakeholders in the Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) initiative. The common objective is to find new solu- tions for building a more efficient air traffic management system. Moreover, Airbus actively contributes in Cleansky, a joint undertaking of the and the European

aeronautics industry, towards making a substantial impact on noise reduction, CO2 emissions and fuel economy.

Sustainable fuel research is also a core tenet of Airbus’ environmental initiatives, focusing on three central principles: supporting the qualification and certification of new fuels, the large-scale use of sustainable aviation fuels, and ensuring the sustainability of these solutions. Airbus is heavily involved in the Initiative Towards sustAinable Kerosene for Aviation (ITAKA), which aims to speed up the commercialisation of aviation biofuels in Europe.
