A consortium jointly run by the leading aerospace industry and universities
The ECATA’25 delegates reflect on four inspiring weeks at Kungliga Tekniska högskolan as the first phase of the journey concluded at Stockholm.
The delegates extends their sincere gratitude to Nenad Glodic and the entire KTH team for their outstanding support, organization, hospitality and a well-structured program. The seamless organization allowed the delegates to focus on both team development and the technical aspects of their project.

On a cold, dark morning at Kungliga Tekniska högskolan Sweden, 24 bright minds from 9 European aerospace companies and 8 countries came together. What kicked off then was a journey of a lifetime filled with learning, unlearning, and relearning. An experience to be etched in the lives of the delegates forever, with pride and smiles.

Last week, our participants had the opportunity to visit Saab, one of our consortium members.
The day started with a presentation on AI and SAAB’s approach to its applications, followed by a deep dive into the Global Eye (Airborne Early Warning aircraft) capabilities.
A key moment was visiting the showroom for a presentation on Missiles and Underwater Vehicles, followed by a true Top Gun experience—flying the Gripen simulator! 😎

The ECATA programme has strengthened my personal development in an incredibly short time and has clearly shown me that a multicultural team with a wide range of different backgrounds can be a real asset to the Aerospace industry. The programme is diverse in many ways. It provides a comprehensive impression of the Aerospace industry, fosters personal development and creates wonderful friendships across Aerospace companies and countries. For me, it was a unique and unforgettable time.
Participating in ECATA is truly a privilege. It is a unique experience that combines first class lectures, seminars and industry visits with project work, customer interaction and last but not least, the chance to make new friends. Through all that, the ECATA course has provided a valuable and extensive toolbox for the future. Although challenging at times, it is an opportunity to celebrate and cherish our cultural differences and likenesses, all united through our passion for European aerospace.
ECATA for me was the people. Stimulating lecturers from different aerospace industries and inspiring delegates to learn from. How often you have the time to take a 3 months pausa from the daily life and concentrate on learning? Soft skills, trending Aerospace topics, cultural challengues, industrials visits etc were part of the extensive agenda. I feel privileged to have been part of it in 2022 and now to be a part of the lasting professional ECALAS network.
ECATA is by far the most impactful training I have taken part in. It made it step change in how I approach work but also how I develop my own career. Following the course I returned to work with a clear set of goals and aspirations which I’m pleased to say I am well on track with. I’m in a role I love and regularly use the tools and techniques I gained from the programme. ECATA created an amazing network across aerospace and I left with some lifelong friendships.
