Last week, we asked you 'Which key area of aerospace innovation do you believe will shape the future of the industry?' Here's how you answered.

Our Founder & CEO, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Josef Kallo sat down with Aerospace Testing International to discuss our latest achievements and provide an outlook on the future of sustainable aviation. The biggest barrier to the widespread adoption of zero-emission aircraft? Fossil fuels as we use them today are far too cheap. Josef shares: "As with any innovative technological advancement, the world needs to grow in confidence, which then leads to acceptance. A way to speed this process up is through government and expert acceptance, which we’re already starting to see through EU-funded research programs. However, there needs to be an increase in the money spent on R&D and infrastructure across the globe." Read the full interview via the link in the comments. #SustainableAviation #Innovation

🌟 Embracing Innovation in Aerospace 🌟 Hello, LinkedIn network. I am excited to share some ideas from my recent experiences in the aerospace business, where innovation and accuracy are propelling us to a better future. Our field is one with high stakes and far-reaching consequences. In our pursuit of excellence, we have prioritized operational efficiency and safety. We effectively streamlined our assembly and maintenance operations by using cutting-edge technologies and clever engineering solutions. These enhancements are critical in an industry that requires unwavering accuracy and dependability. Our path has also included major hurdles, ranging from managing sensitive aircraft components to complying to stringent safety protocols. Each step taken has highlighted the significance of ongoing learning and adaptation. Our capacity to innovate—not only in technology, but also in procedures and methodologies—is what puts us at the forefront of the industry. As we continue to expand and change, the support and collaboration of our global community are critical. We shape the future of aerospace by connecting with thinking leaders, sharing knowledge, and engaging in meaningful discussions. Let's keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible, together.

My colleague Neranjana De Silva has just released our study on de-carbonising the aerospace supply chain, “Decarbonizing the aerospace industry from the ground up”.   The study focuses on Scope 3 Cat. 1 “Purchased Goods & Services”. For most aerospace suppliers, this is the second largest Scope 3 contribution (after Scope 3 Cat. 11 “Use of Sold Products” – which suppliers cannot typically do much to influence). Rather than waiting for SAF or revolutionary new technology, emissions from Purchased Goods & Services can be tackled by the aerospace industry now; furthermore, there are instances where actions to reduce emissions also generate increased resilience and cost reductions – a “triple dividend” in our terminology.   Further details are available from the study at: https://lnkd.in/eFa_gZ_w

"In the coming decade, we have a golden opportunity to build, protect, and capitalise on the UK’s aerospace capabilities. But we will only do this with clear direction informed by research" In a new blog, Professor Rafael Palacios, Director of the Brahmal Institute, highlights where Britain can make major gains in aerospace and drive economic growth 📈 The UK is poised to make significant advancements in aerospace and is already thriving with innovations like Airbus's Wing of Tomorrow and Rolls Royce producing the largest ever jet engine. The primary focus for the industry today is on developing technical solutions and new business models to make net zero flight a reality in the latter half of the century.

📣 | NEW BLOG: "In the coming decade we have a golden opportunity to build, protect and capitalise on the UK’s aerospace capabilities. But we will only do this with clear direction informed by this type of research." ✈ 💡 Excited to share our next blog in the series on the UK’s strengths in the aerospace sector. Professor Rafael Palacios at Imperial College London highlights where Britain can make major gains in aerospace and drive economic growth. We can be confident that the UK can make major gains in the sector in the coming decades. Aerospace engineering and innovation in the UK is thriving, whether it’s the Wing of Tomorrow made at Airbus or Rolls Royce producing the largest ever jet engine. But today, the defining challenge for the industry is net zero and producing the technical solutions and new business models to make net zero flight a reality in the second half of this century. Read more below 👇 #aerospace #innovation #sustainability https://lnkd.in/eVfaHk8Z

The MAA are pleased to announce the launch of the ASSIST Programme as part of the West Midlands Innovation Programme 2.0 in partnership with West Midlands Combined Authority, Innovate UK, UK Research and Innovation, Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, Innovation Alliance for the West Midlands. The programme aims to improve the take-up of innovation funding by West Midlands based Aerospace Supply Chain SMEs. We will be talking to SMEs on both sides – those who have and those who haven’t participated in national innovation funding programmes and we will use what we learn to help funders engage more effectively. We will also develop a process to engage swiftly with Aerospace Supply Chain companies and match them to suitable funding sources, and this will be piloted with 6 West Midlands companies over the next few months. #WMIA #WestMidlandsInnovation #WMPlanforGrowth #aerospaceindustry #aerospaceindustries #aerospacemanufacturing #aerospaceengineering #advancedmanufacturing #advancedengineering #ukmanufacturing #ukengineering #manufacturingindustry #manufacturinguk #engineeringuk #ukmfg #aerospace #manufacturingnews #smebusiness #smesupport #smegrowth #smeuk #innovation

🌐 Here's the breakdown of the results from #Italy from interviews highlighting key areas for enhancing funding synergies and collaboration in research projects: 🧩 Closer alignment between regional, national, and European funding is crucial. Stakeholders advocate for initiatives like the Seal of Excellence and MoC, emphasizing the need for improved technical connections and implementation procedures. 🧩 Continuity and TRL evolution are key. Calls for increased continuity, higher TRL targets, and collaborative industrialization funding resonate among interviewees, promising advancements in research initiatives. 🧩 Streamlining administrative processes is critical. Standardized eligibility criteria, harmonized evaluation processes, and aligned proposal deadlines are urged for greater efficiency and transparency. 🧩 Cross-collaboration is essential for achieving synergies. Expansion of networks, replication of successful methodologies, and broader partnerships, as seen in initiatives like Clean Aviation, hold the potential for driving innovation. 🧩 Recognition of the importance of investing in new infrastructure, especially in emerging technologies like hydrogen propulsion systems, underscores the need for collaboration and funding, reflecting evolving trends in technological advancement and innovation.
