The project aims to strengthen small and medium-sized companies in the space industry by increasing knowledge and increasing delivery capacity towards larger companies and towards an international market. The method focuses on additive manufacturing (AM) and four development projects will be run in collaboration between academia and companies. GKN Aerospace Sweden AB is a central part of the implementation. Dissemination activities must be carried out in order to reach a broader target group than those involved in the development projects. At the end of the project, an open arena in space technology will have been created, with an increased flow of innovations and increased collaboration between academia and companies. The project is part of University West’s strategy to create a national arena for AM.
