This Midlands Aerospace Alliance members meeting focuses on future manufacturing technologies in the aerospace industry.

We are honoured to welcome as our keynote speaker Professor Sir Mike Gregory, Head, Institute of Manufacturing, University of Cambridge, the UK's leading independent thinker on this vital topic.

You will also be able to learn how:

  • NATEP, the National Aerospace Technology Exploitation Programme can help you invest in cutting edge technology with up to £150,000 funding plus expert help
  • one company is using NATEP to improve supply chain management for manufactured parts
  • a new government scheme can provide funding to help you invest in new manufacturing equipment
  • the Manufacturing Technology Centre can support you with practical tooling and fixturing ideas.

The meeting is combined with the short Annual General Meeting we normally hold at this time of year. Find out who your fellow MAA members have elected to the MAA board this year!
