How can we support you?
Aero EDIH can fund development projects for SMEs (small and medium enterprises), regional airports, and PSOs (public sector organizations) related to the future of aviation and drones. The projects should be connected to digitalization and the areas of cybersecurity, AI, and HPC (high-performance computing).
The support we provide is not financial but expertise in the form of consultants, either in-house or contracted, who assist you with your specific project. You can also gain access to our labs and equipment available at Linköping University (LiU) and RISE drone lab. Additionally, through our networks, we can connect you with relevant suppliers, partners, or future employees in Sweden or the EU.
