The company will reveal its roadmap for the next phase on November 25, with the fulfilment of military programmes, industrial alliances, and the future of Minsait as the main uncertainties.
Indra will present its new strategic plan on November 25, as this media outlet has learned from information published by goaragon.es. The company chaired by Ángel Simón and directed by Josep Maria Recasens will thus unveil the roadmap that will take over from the Leading the Future plan, which is in effect for the period 2024-2026.
The new document arrives at a time of accelerated growth. Indra closed 2025 with revenues of €5.457 billion, a 13% increase compared to the previous year, and is working with the forecast of exceeding €7 billion by the end of 2026. This evolution, faster than expected, has led the company to prepare for a new strategic phase.
The previous plan had set the goal of reaching over €6 billion in turnover by 2026 and achieving €10 billion by 2030, in addition to making Indra the coordinator of the Spanish defence and aerospace ecosystem.
One of the priorities highlighted by the executive leadership is the fulfilment of industrial programmes and, in particular, their delivery schedules. As Simón has pointed out, the goal is the rigorous adherence to delivery times, while Recasens has argued that industrial credibility must be built on the ability to deliver programmes on time.
Indra's transformation is gradually altering its position in the Spanish industry. The company has a solid track record in radars, electronic warfare, command and control systems, simulation, air traffic management, and embedded technologies, and in recent years has expanded its presence towards complete systems and larger-scale industrial capabilities.
The Leading the Future plan already identified six major technological categories for its defence business: radar, electronic defence, electro-optics, command and control, communications, and simulation. It also proposed investments exceeding €3 billion in R&D until 2030.
This process has been complemented by corporate operations. One of the most relevant moves has been the strengthening of its position in Tess Defence, responsible for the VCR 8×8 Dragón programme, while the company increased its land industrial activity.
Another question that the new strategy must clarify is the model of collaboration with the rest of the Spanish industrial fabric. Indra has stated that alliances will be necessary to face the anticipated growth and increasingly complex technological programmes. Among the moves on the table is a possible rapprochement with Santa Bárbara Sistemas. Both companies have differences regarding some major land and artillery programmes, but have explored industrial collaboration formulas, including the possibility of forming a joint venture.
The new plan will also need to clarify the role of Minsait within the group. The information technology and digital transformation business continues to represent a very significant part of Indra's revenues, although the company has initiated some divestments to concentrate resources in areas deemed strategic: defence, space, air traffic management, mobility, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and advanced digital technologies. Indra also aims to develop capabilities in fields such as anti-drone systems, unmanned aerial vehicles, and satellites.
