Boeing Airbus Diehl 2025 Aviation Forum

Episode notes

Welcome to Hamburg - and to one of the most decisive meeting points of the global aerospace industry: the Aviation Forum. What unfolded here was far more than a conference. It was a strategic checkpoint for an industry under transformation. Across two high-energy days, aerospace leaders, OEMs, Tier-1 and Tier-2 suppliers, innovators, and policymakers came together to discuss the realities shaping aviation today - and the decisions defining tomorrow. The focus was clear: resilience, operational excellence, digital transformation, and sustainability - without compromise on performance or safety. One of the standout highlights was a high-level panel on Aero Excellence, expertly moderated by Alex Beer, who led a sharp, practice-driven discussion on industrial maturity, quality standards, and supply-chain robustness. At the center of that conversation was Jörg Schuler, CEO of Diehl, offering unfiltered insights into what aerospace excellence really means in times of pressure, disruption, and rising expectations from OEMs. This panel set the tone for the entire forum: less theory, more execution.
