Hi all,

for those who I haven't spoken to yet. I'm Gabi, formerly programme director for the Ignite Accelerator and ATI Boeing Accelerator and co-founder of Metta. I wanted to share this great opportunity for AI startups in the community.

You may have seen, but the ATI Boeing Accelerator recently rebranded and has opened applications for its next cycle. The closing date for Aerospace Xelerated applications is 26th Sept and the virtual/ in-person (UK-based if for any in-person elements) will run Q1 2022. The accelerator offers a £100k SAFE from Boeing, a tailored 12-week accelerator curriculum and lots of aerospace/ industry access.

We're looking for anyone building software-focused AI or Autonomy products that could be applicable to (civil and/ or defence) aerospace. Super happy to have startups from different industries apply - if they want to get into aerospace. We have examples of thematic areas (including assured autonomy, autonomous navigation, adaptive learning etc.) we're especially interested in here.

Please let me know ([email protected]) if you have questions or want to find out more :) Always happy to jump on a call and discuss - even if its not about this programme in particular but support around startup topics or finding/chosing accelerators! (Have been through a few myself as a founder)

Best,

Gabi
