Leonardo’s mission is to provide technologies for a safer future: innovative integrated solutions for communities’ defence, security, and protection that help countries and their institutions safeguard citizens and critical infrastructure, contributing to peace and prosperity in society.

In line with this mission, the Industrial Plan, and the priorities that came out of the double materiality analysis, Leonardo has put together a five-year sustainability plan for the period 2026 to 2030, which covers the entire value chain and is fully integrated into the business. It structurally strengthens the link between sustainability and industrial strategy, positioning it as a lever for value creation and an enabler of competitiveness and resilience in the medium to long term. 

The sustainability plan aims to increase the efficiency and resilience of operations, develop integrated technologies and solutions for the protection of people, infrastructure, and communities, and anticipate and manage risks, strengthening Leonardo's role as a reliable partner to Governments and institutions. The Plan consists of over 90 high-impact projects, structured according to an updated framework that covers the Group's entire business portfolio and geographical scope.
 

The new framework has been designed to be closely aligned with the Group's industrial priorities and decision-making processes. It focuses activities on the main business areas while enhancing the positive impact that the company has on the outside world, concentrating initiatives on four well established clusters - instead of the eight in the previous version:

• Efficiency in operations with a consequent reduction in environmental and climate impact, and a more resilient supply chain;
• Development of innovative technologies capable of generating a positive impact on society and adaptation to climate change; 
• People empowerment, skills development, and social value generation in local communities; 
• Compliance with business ethics and human rights principles across all Group activities. 

Projects are defined through clear and measurable objectives and monitored through KPIs integrated into a digital ecosystem dedicated to managing plan performance and supporting the integration of sustainability and industrial objectives.
