Patron for the ZAL Innovation Days 2019
We are very happy to have Mr. Jarzombek, Federal Government Coordinator of German Aerospace Policy, as patron for the ZAL Innovation Days 2019. His patronage of this event underscores the importance of the agenda – industry experts sharing their knowledge of robotics and advanced automation.
„Aerospace is the engine of innovation, and the ZAL Innovation Days
are the accelerator. Initiatives such as the ZAL Innovation Days help
to secure Germany as competitive location for the industry.
Together we can shape the future of aviation.”
Thomas Jarzombek, Federal Government Coordinator of German Aerospace Policy.
In may 2018, just one month after entering office, Jarzombek visited ZAL for the first time. He was
impressed by the various possibilities offered by ZAL to do applied aeronautical research. At the time, he
promised to visit ZAL again. We are delighted that the Innovation Days offer him the opportunity. And we
look forward to his welcoming address on the second day of the event! Be there and register now.
