Chambre de Commerce et d'Industrie Franco Indienne had the pleasure of organising an Business Breakfast with Airbus, Airbus Helicopters executives & CCIFI members and partners active in aerospace eco-systems this morning (6 February 2026) in Paris.
We would also like to express our special appreciation to our newly elected Board Member, Christophe Eck, for kindly hosting this event at Gide premises in Paris.
The session featured an excellent and insightful discussion, led by the Airbus team, highlighting Airbus’ deepening relationship with India, its long-standing presence in the country, and its strong alignment with the Make in India vision. The presentations offered valuable perspectives on how Airbus’ collaboration with India continues to grow across civil aviation, helicopters, defence, and industrial partnerships.
Our sincere thanks to Christophe Bonneau, Public Affairs – Airbus, and Fabrice Cagnat, Head of Military Programs & Partnerships – India, Airbus Helicopters, & Jeanne Evano Project Manager - International Government Affairs (France) Airbus for their engaging presentations and for taking the time to address questions from participants with clarity and openness.
This Business Breakfast brought together select leaders from business, industry, and institutions at a pivotal moment in India–France relations, which continue to deepen through strategic cooperation in innovation, aerospace, sustainability, and advanced manufacturing. Aviation remains a cornerstone of this partnership, symbolising trust, technological excellence, and long-term collaboration between the two nations.
As a global aerospace leader and a key partner in India’s aviation growth story, Airbus plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of air mobility, innovation, and industrial cooperation between France and India, especially in this Year of Innovation.
