Acquisition closed: INFODAS GmbH becomes a subsidiary of Airbus

A milestone in the company’s 50-year history: INFODAS GmbH is now operating as a subsidiary of Airbus, but retains its own branding and business operations. The customary regulatory approvals have been granted. This completes the successful acquisition of INFODAS GmbH from Airbus Defence and Space. Over the past five decades, infodas has developed into a leading provider of cyber and IT solutions. Both companies are driven by a common understanding of changing customer requirements, combined with a relentless commitment to become the spearhead of innovative cybersecurity.

“This acquisition supports Airbus’ strategic ambition to strengthen its cybersecurity portfolio for the benefit of its European and global customers” said Karen Florschütz, Executive Vice President of Connected Intelligence at Airbus Defence and Space. With the exponential growth of cyber threats, along with the increasing digitalisation and connectivity of defence and aerospace products and systems, cybersecurity is an important component of Airbus’ development. Over the last years, the company has continuously developed its cybersecurity capabilities and expertise, ensuring the best possible protection for its products, operations, customers, and ecosystem, including in the perspective of major military programmes such as the Future Combat Air System (FCAS).

With the acquisition by Airbus Defence and Space, infodas is perfectly aligned for future expansion. Both organizations will benefit from unique expertise in securing sensitive data infrastructures and developing cutting-edge technologies. “We are very pleased that the transaction has been finalized and that we can now shape the digital future together. Our aim is to become a pioneer of digital sovereignty. This unprecedented alliance with Airbus Defence and Space will enable us to expand into new markets and strengthen existing customer segments. infodas is already in a position of considerable expertise thanks to its 50-year company history, and this acquisition paves the way for sustainable and consistent growth. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those responsible at Airbus Defence and Space for the trust they have placed in us and look to the future with a great deal of optimism. Together, we are making the digital and networked world even more secure. We can assure our existing customers that we will continue to be a reliable and established partner at their side and will incorporate the newly acquired expertise into our current business relationships,” said the Managing Directors of INFODAS GmbH, Thorsten Ecke, Lutz Franken and Carsten Schulz, in a joint statement. All three will remain active in their actual position and area of responsibility at infodas.
