AEROSPACE TECH WEEK’s Post

During the last two years, over 20 start-ups were selected to enter our tailored #incubation program and welcomed with a rich offering of services - among which #funding, business development and technical support, training sessions, mentorship and access to an international industry network - in order to transform their #space projects into true businesses. Thanks to the support of Agenzia Spaziale Italiana, European Space Agency - ESA and all the ESA BIC Turin partners, the incubated start-ups are included in a wide #innovation ecosystem. But there's more to that: they also become part of a national community of like-minded innovators, courageous entrepreneurs and rising stars of the #SpaceEconomy who share a common path towards success on the international markets. Discover more about the young companies who are already part of our community and apply your project by June 7 to join them: https://lnkd.in/d4v37fRN ESA Space Solutions | ESA Commercialisation Gateway | I3P - Innovative Companies Incubator of Politecnico Torino | Politecnico di Torino | LINKS Foundation | Regione Piemonte | Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo | Camera di commercio di Torino #ESABIC #startup #technology #business

🚀 SpaceFounders at Airbus: A Day of Pitching, Insights, and Innovation ✨ "Always end on a high note" is the saying. So, the 5th SpaceFounders cohort closed Toulouse week with a visit to Airbus, where each startup got to pitch their groundbreaking ideas for five minutes—right in front of top executives and experts from Airbus Defence and Space. It was a rare and invaluable chance for our startups to showcase their vision to some of the most influential decision-makers in aerospace! 🙌 As Matthieu Lys, Head of Innovation Management, puts it, "Airbus is deeply committed to fostering innovation, and we are always eager to share our knowledge and collaborate with visionary startups. By supporting programs like SpaceFounders, we not only empower new technologies but also create opportunities to learn, grow, and innovate together for the future of aerospace." 💡✨ A big thank you to Matthieu Lys and all the Innovation team at Airbus Defence and Space, for hosting us and making this experience possible. It’s not every day that startups get to pitch directly in front of the people shaping the future of aerospace, and the 5th cohort certainly lived up to that promise. 🌌✨ 🚀 Highlights of the Day: - 5-Minute Startup Pitches: Each of our cohort startups delivered concise, powerful five-minute pitches, gaining direct feedback from top-level Airbus executives and experts. This was an invaluable opportunity to refine their narratives and get on the radar of potential partners. 🎤💡 - Engaging Discussions: From deep tech to future opportunities in defence and space, the day was full of insightful conversations, valuable connections, and potential pathways for collaboration. 🤝✨ The exchange of ideas and feedback between the startups and Airbus highlighted just how pivotal innovation is to the future of aerospace. The dedication to pushing boundaries, exploring new frontiers, and driving sustainable solutions was clear throughout the day. 🚀✨ Thank you once again to Matthieu Lys and the Airbus team for opening your doors and giving our startups this fantastic opportunity! 🙏🌠 #SpaceFounders #Airbus #Innovation #StartupPitch #Cohort5 #FutureOfSpace #OpenInnovation #AerospaceIndustry #DefenseAndSpace #Entrepreneurship #Partnerships

We just hit an exciting internal milestone that’s probably not impressive to anyone but us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I’ll tell you about it anyway. The last few months we’ve been facing some huge tech setbacks at AirVitalize Innovations. This prevented us from keeping a usable company roadmap to stay on track, causing internal confusion on a rushed timeline. It’s a good reminder that if it were easy, everyone would be cleaning outdoor air! We spent July until now troubleshooting with 100+ experiments, moving into a new lab, & of course continuing open and honest relationships with existing partners while doing more customer discovery. Now we’ve developed new IP, tech applications, and safety mechanisms. And as of today we finally have enough clarity to rework our roadmap !!! Plus my awesome CTO Chris Stokely & I had a ton of fun doing it. So 3 steps back to 2 steps forward might seem like not a huge milestone to everyone. But we couldn’t be happier with what’s to come! Shoutout to the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI) headquarters for giving us some LA-based workspace & lab. — #founderjourney #startup #entreprenuership #femalefounder #strategy #tech #climatetech #airquality #airpollution #publichealth #innovation #angel #preseed #brainstorming
