Christophe Sonier

Sales Manager – Defense division SAFRAN ELECTRONICS & DEFENSE

With a technical background, I have been working in the defense industry as soon as I have graduated. After a few years in French companies like Aerospatiale and Matra Defense (that became MBDA), I joined Safran Electronics & Defense in 2001 to work on Safran air to ground weapon called “Hammer”. From 2011, I decided to move to the Safran Sales team to manage the inertial land navigation activity. In the last 12 years, Safran land navigation portfolio has grown and matured thanks to Safran breathrough in inertial technologies. With the purchase in 2022 or Orolia, a French company specialized in timing and clocks, I am now overlooking all the land Navigation & Timing domain.
