NASA Hosts Industry Day to Foster Revolutionary Aerospace Technologies
NASA's Glenn Research Center is organizing an industry day on April 23, 2026, in Cleveland, Ohio, to promote the Aeronautics Flight Accelerator (AFA) initiative. This event aims to brief companies on NASA's plans and explore potential partnerships in developing advanced aerospace technologies. The industry day will include programmatic overviews, Q&A sessions, and one-on-one meetings between NASA officials and participating companies. The initiative seeks to transition cutting-edge aeronautics technologies from research to real-world flight demonstrations by enhancing access to NASA's flight assets and test infrastructure. Companies interested in participating must submit a two-page executive summary by April 14, 2026, to be considered for a 20-minute one-on-one meeting during the event.
