aerospace technology validation programmes

Aerospace Technology Validation Programmes (ATVP) demonstrate and integrate innovative technologies, reducing the risk in downstream product programmes. ATVPs will be led by a single UK company with participation open to all UK aerospace companies for work to be undertaken in the UK; however, they will be funded jointly by industry and Government.

ATVPs will focus on a specific product theme, identified as part of the National Aerospace Technology Strategy, over a rolling 5-year period. It is likely that they will be 'fed through' outputs from affiliated Aerospace Innovation Networks.

Six ATVPs are currently being developed:

• Integrated Wing
• More Electric Aircraft
• Environmentally Friendly Engine
• Autonomous Systems
• INFOAir
• Integrated Air Traffic Management Network

Contact the Innovation Manager if you would like further information, including how to participate in an ATVP.
