Boeing buys a lot of smaller technology companies/products and folds them into various subsidiaries (like Jeppesen). This brings a constant source of innovation to the enterprise, and means there are lots of interesting things going on in the broader enterprise. The Jeppesen brand consists of a whole bunch of cool legacy companies and semi-transplanted subsets of various sibling subsidiaries: SBS, Carmen, Tapestry, Enplore etc, etc. Loads of stuff in addition to the more publicly famous chart business.
