[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]By handing over the results of the ‘Flying HighER agenda’ to the representative of the province of South Holland, Mrs Bom-Lemstra, and the Delft alderman Ferrie Förster, yesterday the merger between the Joint Industry Program Aero-Space (JIPAS) and Holland Instrumentation (HI) has become a fact. The merger creates a large technology-oriented network organization that stimulates cross-sectoral collaboration. Airborne is one of the new members
The results of Flying HighER and the merger were celebrated Monday, November 27th with a ceremonial meeting at the Hogeschool InHolland in Delft attended by some 50 representatives. As new member of HI Airborne is looking forward to participate actively within the expanded network with regard to robotics, sensors, automation and digitization of composite manufacturing processes.
A need for high-tech knowledge
HI continues to build the network by organizing regional network events, lectures and company visits. The aerospace industry is one of the most successful high-tech industrial clusters in West Holland. Companies in air transport, aviation, space travel and drones are experiencing a rapid growth cycle. The rapidly growing demand is an important motive for these companies to switch from manual production to robotised and digitized ‘smart production’. A need for high-tech knowledge in areas such as automation, sensor systems, robotics and big data knowledge is the logical consequence.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
