Abstract:In recent years the Aerospace & Defence (A&D) industries have undergone significant technological, organizational and institutional changes that have profoundly altered their organizational architectures. These changes have introduced a new division of labour, bringing new opportunities for interaction and collaboration and leading to the creation of new valuable assets. In this context, the issue of protecting and exploiting innovation output has become central in the strategic agenda of the C-level board. Building and designing renew capabilities and governance for the shift from traditional policies and procedures to new models and practices is the real challenge to be met. This was the conviction of Alessandro Profumo, CEO, and Roberto Cingolani, CT&IO, of the Leonardo company when they resolved to make the IP evolution of the company a reality. 1.
