- Thales announces the creation of the Thales Speakers Bureau as
a platform for its in-house experts to share their experience and
demystify the innovations that will shape the world of
tomorrow.
- With fewer possibilities for face-to-face contact, Thales
proposes to create new opportunities to connect with its customers,
its ecosystem and the general public, to explain complex and key
issues in simple words.
- Thales invests 4 billion euros a year in R&D, and a third
of its 83,000 employees are directly involved in these
projects.
Quantum technology, 5G, cyberdefence, cybersecurity,
biometrics, AI, self-driving cars, drones... Thales experts will
remove some of the mystery surrounding the technologies that will
shape the world of tomorrow.
In a world that continues to grapple with big issues such as
mobility in the context of climate change; globalisation in an age
of pandemics; the need to ensure safety and security while
respecting people's privacy and our added reliance on online
interactions at a time when cyberattacks are on the rise, Thales
sees technology as part of the solution to the challenges our
planet faces. But technology alone is not enough. Today more than
ever, we need human intelligence, knowledge, perspective and
education, because that is how technology will drive progress and
help to build a future we can all trust.
With the launch of Thales Speakers Bureau, the Group is
providing a platform for a diverse sample of in-house experts to
demystify subjects ranging from quantum technology, 5G,
cyberdefence and cybersecurity to biometrics, AI, self-driving cars
and drones. Speakers will also include subject-matter
specialists with a passion for issues such as sustainable
development, frugal AI and autonomous trains, as well as business
experts capable of explaining global trends in the transport,
space, defence, identity, security, cybersecurity and aerospace
sectors.
Through this platform, customers, industry stakeholders,
conference organisers and members of the media can call on experts
taking part in the Thales Speakers Bureau to share their knowledge
and insights on key societal and technological issues. The Thales
Speakers' Bureau can be accessed here.
“Our objective is to explain, in simple words, a range of issues
that may be complex or difficult to grasp by letting our in-house
experts speak. Behind every important topic, there are women and
men working away unnoticed. We want to listen to what they have to
say and share their unseen expertise as widely as we can, and we
hope they will inspire new generations of women and men to be the
researchers, engineers and architects of tomorrow's world," said
Peggy Nahmany, VP, Communications, Thales.
