An event to promote innovation

InnoDay 2025, the Aerospace Valley ecosystem's key innovation event, was held on October 8, 2025 at La Cité in Toulouse.

The event brought together startups, laboratories and major groups to highlight technological solutions to the new challenges facing the aerospace industry.

This was also the occasion for the Aerospace Valley Innovation Awards ceremony, in which Wheere was pleased to participate as a prizewinner.

Wheere's Kevin Rutankabandi presents the indoor geolocation solution at the InnoDay event, organized as part of the Aerospace Valley Innovation Awards.

Why was Wheere selected?

Wheere has been selected by Sopra Steria for its high-potential innovation in the field of geolocation.

What convinced the jury:

  • indoor geolocation technology capable of covering up to 1 km² with just four antennas

  • a minimalist infrastructure for easy integration and scalability

  • a "no-limit" approach, thanks to the future LEO PNT micro-satellite constellation.
