Event Coordinator H/f

An impactful industrial company, EXPLISEAT works to make transport more environmentally friendly. Since 2011, thanks to our innovative technologies and more than 100 patents, we have been making planes lighter with our ultralight seats, significantly reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

In 2021, EXPLISEAT was a finalist for the prestigious AIRBUS INNOVATION AWARD, which rewards the best technologies for commercial aviation among the 12,000 suppliers of the Airbus group.

In 2023, driven by the urgency of decarbonizing mobility, Expliseat announced a fundraising of 17 million euros to accelerate the deployment of its technology via:

• Industrial acceleration with the opening of a first own assembly plant: 6,000m2 in Angers built to the latest environmental standards (DPE A)
• Commercial acceleration with the opening of new markets (rail, electric land mobility, eVTOL, etc.)
• Technical acceleration to increase our leadership in responsible, high-performance and technologically disruptive seats

Leader in ultralight seats for regional aviation and growing in the medium-haul segment, Expliseat is present with the main aircraft manufacturers (Airbus, Boeing, ATR, De Havilland of Canada, Dassault, Comac, Lilium, etc.), key Marquee Airlines such as Jazeera Airways, Air Canada and Air France have endorsed our products and counts on over 15,000 seats flying in Canada, India, the Philippines, Polynesia…
