For more than 130 years, Thales has evolved from a pioneering electrical company into a global technology leader that shapes the future of our societies.

Over decades of transformation through innovation and strategic growth, Thales recognized that as the world became increasingly connected, the need for trusted, secure, and sustainable technology solutions would become paramount. This insight drove the company to expand its expertise from electrical systems into aerospace, defence, space, and cybersecurity. Today, Thales stands at the forefront of "deep tech" innovation, investing over €4 billion annually in Research & Development to address humanity's greatest challenges: sovereignty, security, sustainability, and inclusion. With more than 83,000 experts across 68 countries and €20.6 billion in sales, the company has become indispensable to governments and enterprises worldwide. From protecting critical infrastructure and securing digital identities to advancing quantum computing and artificial intelligence, Thales continues its founding mission: building a future we can all trust through technological excellence.
