News:

The programme team were delighted to be able to spend some in-person(!) time with the latest cohort in Spain last week. This was our first programme contact with a cohort since the first lockdown during Cohort 1 – and we had a great time visiting Boeing colleagues in Galicia and met with companies from the region. You can follow the trip updates using the #AXinGalicia hashtag on Twitter.

Nicola Bates, Head of Boeing’s Global Accelerators and Innovation Programs and AX's Managing Partner, journeyed to Riyadh to share her thoughts on how sustainability creates new pathways for market entry for defence startups at a World Defense Show panel.

The creation of a new aviation ecosystem will be a complex task involving many organisations and players, but if the industry gets it right, the possibilities will be endless.That was the view of Gary Cutts, Future Flight Challenge Director at UKRI, discussing the task ahead for the emerging sector at the Global Urban Advanced Air Summit (GUAAS).
