InSPIRE will be a dynamic hub where applied research, development, and testing collide. It will serve as a catalyst for translating innovative ideas into practical solutions, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world applications.
InSPIRE will strengthen and grow the skilled and diverse workforce required to support and staff a thriving aerodynamics and advanced manufacturing ecosystem headquartered in Northwest Florida.
Innovation and Research
High-speed Aerodynamics
High-speed Aerodynamics (InSPIRE wind tunnels will be used to test and refine advanced materials and manufacturing techniques, ensuring that the components produced are capable of performing optimally under the unique stresses encountered during high-speed aerodynamic and hypersonic conditions (M5+).)
Advanced Manufacturing
Advanced Manufacturing (InSPIRE will be a center for the integration of advanced materials and manufacturing technologies, with the objective of fabricating components that are not only lighter and more robust but also exceptionally resilient. It will impact manufacturing lead times and mitigate costs associated with supply chain constraints, thereby streamlining the production process.)
Workforce Development
Training and Education
Workforce Training and Education (InSPIRE focuses on launching and expanding integrated workforce training and education programs specifically designed for the advanced aerospace and manufacturing sectors at all levels of the learner continuum (K-20+).)
