Marie-Hélène Baroux, Director General of ISAE-SUPAERO, emphasised the strategic importance of this partnership:
“This collaboration with the ITA and the institutions of São Paulo is an essential lever for developing innovative projects in key areas such as artificial intelligence applied to aeronautics, sustainability and new technologies. It offers our students and researchers invaluable opportunities to become fully involved in the challenges of tomorrow’s aerospace sector”.
This renewal brings with it a number of important commitments:
- For students, it guarantees an expansion of exchange programmes, with a desire to further enrich exchanges between France and Brazil.
- For researchers, it means greater openness to innovative collaborative projects, particularly in areas of the future such as artificial intelligence applied to aeronautics, environmental sustainability and new materials.
- For ISAE-SUPAERO, it is an additional lever to strengthen its international attractiveness and confirm its major role in training engineers capable of meeting the challenges of the sector.
For more than twenty years, ISAE-SUPAERO and ITA have been developing joint programmes, in particular the BRAFITEC double degree, which enables students to acquire unique international and bicultural expertise. This renewal bears witness to the vitality and relevance of this cooperation in a global context marked by major technological and environmental challenges.
This cooperation is also part of a strong scientific dynamic between France and the State of São Paulo, with almost 10,000 joint publications in six years, demonstrating effective international synergy.
” Scientific and technological cooperation between the two regions is strong and growing. Over the last six years, French and Paulo researchers have jointly published 9,800 scientific articles, which represents 52% of all articles published as part of international collaborations during this period “, emphasised Marco Antonio Zago, President of the FAPESP.
The renewal of the agreements illustrates the strength of this transatlantic scientific cooperation, which continues to develop and diversify. It also testifies to the commitment and common vision shared by the participants in FAPESP Week France 2025, including Marco Antonio Zago, President of FAPESP, Marie-Hélène Baroux, Director General of ISAE-SUPAERO, Vahan Agopyan, Secretary for Science, Technology and Innovation of the State of São Paulo, and Odile Rauzy, Rector of Toulouse III – Paul Sabatier University, who summed up the challenge: ” Together, moving in the same direction, we will be stronger at a crucial time for science “.
