CT Ingenieros, a member of AeroS Ecosystem, organised the Defense Engineering Forum 2026, held on 8 October at the Badalona Centre Internacional de Negocis (BCIN). The event featured contributions and participation from several AeroS members.
CT Ingenieros —The CT Engineering Group—, together with CADTECH and with the collaboration of Dassault Systèmes, organised an event that brought together companies, institutions, technology centres and associations to discuss the capabilities needed to tackle new defence programmes. Through this initiative, the company provided a forum for sharing knowledge and connecting the different players across the value chain.
The event focused on the challenges posed by a new generation of programmes requiring greater cooperation, integration capabilities, and technical and management rigour. Systems engineering, industrialisation, traceability and digital technologies were among the main topics discussed.
