At the ESI symposium 2024 I talk with Jeannine Peek (General Manager of Capgemini NL). She did the keynote speech from an industrial standpoint at the seminar called: "Augment ME! Elevate Your Possible, Rediscover Ourselves". In this interview she explains some topics of the keynote: genAI, quantum but also the need for smart engineering people to fulfil all the (new) tech roles around us.

Lenneke Alves Bakker is the Airbus Head of Change Management & Support. With her Airbus digital workplace team she pioneers in the Airbus aerospace industry. In this podcast we talk on sustainability and the work Capgemini and Airbus is doing with respect to the digital workplace.

There are two big aerospace manufacturers in the world that make up for 2% of CO2 emissions. With that knowledge Airbus can really contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of aviation. Currently they run a 50:50 mix of fossil fuel and sustainable aviation fuel from waste materials. Ramping up to 100% in the coming year it will greatly reduce the CO2 footprint. A rapid develop is going on with the Airbus zero emission aircraft fuelled by Hydrogen. The big challenge is to store hydrogen in the aircraft as well as build the entire ecosystem around it that brings that hydrogen to the plane. A big engineering task to convert from current infrastructure to hydrogen infrastructure. 

In order to achieve all this Lenneke and the Airbus digital workspace wants to give the engineers the tools to enable them to work efficiently and improve collaboration through the entire company. Airbus and Capgemini are working together to introduce new tools and technologies in the Airbus environment. For example google workspace was introduced as well as smartphones for all workforce employees. A citizen development approach helps to steer away from a jungle of macros to a low code no code solution by Google. Now all initiatives are documented and widely available for reuse in stead of only local on one laptop.

At the Capgemini innovation day 2023 Linda de Looper (Colonel Dutch Royal Airforce, Chief Digital Transformation) explains the links between data science and topics as quick response, time to battlefield and operational readiness. We recorded this podcast to give you a glimpse of the digital transformation taking place path the Dutch Royal Airforce. 

Linda started her assignment to work on the digital transformation as a one women enterprise and now has a whole team around her who deliver awesome results.

AI is rapidly entering the defence domain. Building a solid base of AI knowledge requires trustworthy data. A combination of Art and Science helps to navigate through the now (and future) data and AI heavy world.

Capgemini's first CTIO within Capgemini, Dr. Cara Antoine, promotes women in tech and leads the way on the innovation day. In this podcast we follow up on the first podcast in this series and Cara takes the wow of #genAI to the Now. She talks on how genAI is going to fundamentally shift the way we do business (marketing, efficient operations) and how it still needs to keep that human connection in place. Let everyone be in contact with and learn about AI; in short:
"Be a learn-it-all"

One of the keynotes on the Innovation Day was given by Robert H.P. (Dr. Bob) Engels (head of the Capgemini Ai futures lab. Together with Dr. Cara Antoine he showed the easy of use of genAI nowadays, its shortcomings and its potential. In the Technology Pioneers podcast he gives us a glimpse of has talk and future outlook on genAI.

This is a series of four podcasts recorded on the Innovation Day. Be sure to subscribe to Technology Pioneers and listen to the other podcasts to experience a little bit of the Innovation Day.
