NLR Returns to Support SFTE EC for the 37th Berlin Symposium
SFTE European Chapter is proud to welcome the Royal Netherlands Aerospace Centre (NLR) as the sixth sponsor of the 37th Symposium.
This milestone marks the continuation of a long-standing partnership built on shared values: advancing aerospace knowledge, fostering innovation, and supporting the global flight test community.
For over a century, NLR has been at the forefront of aerospace research and development, bridging the gap between cutting-edge science and real-world application across aviation and space domains. From advanced simulation and testing to certification and operational support, NLR embodies the spirit of rigorous engineering and forward-thinking that defines flight test excellence.
Their continued support reinforces a common mission: to push boundaries, enable safer and more sustainable aviation, and empower the next generation of flight test professionals.
As we look ahead to the 37th Symposium, this renewed collaboration stands as a testament to what can be achieved when expertise, passion, and vision come together.
We are honored to continue this journey alongside NLR.
