Our international partnerships
Our innovation strategy is deployed internationally, namely in Belgium, Singapore and in Australia where Naval Group has established Centres of Operational Excellence (CoE) to approach local ecosystems and forge new partnerships.
Accelerating innovation
We at Naval Group constantly endeavour to accelerate innovation and anticipate future needs, conceiving breakthrough innovations thanks to our dedicated lab, the Naval Innovation Hub (NIH).
We also apply iterative and agile innovation methods and favour the rapid experimentation of our onboard solutions.
Our network of Open Labs and specialised laboratories also contribute to promulgating a culture of experimentation thanks to rapid and frugal prototyping of innovative solutions.
We also encourage intrapreneurship to cultivate a spirit of initiative and creativity within the group, as well as to set out and conquer new horizons.
