EPIC to Grow Collaboration with iAero

EPIC is strategically enhancing collaboration with partners and other innovation centres as it reaches its capacity. A recent visit by EPIC to the remarkable iAero Centre in Yeovil, located adjacent to Leonardo—the home of British helicopters—has opened exciting possibilities for closer cooperation between the two centres.
During the visit, representatives from EPIC and iAero explored various avenues for future collaboration. As an initial step, they plan to organise events that bring together microelectronics and photonics businesses within EPIC with local aerospace companies at iAero. This exchange will provide an excellent opportunity for networking and partnership development.

EPIC, in turn, will reciprocate by welcoming aerospace organisations to visit their facilities and engage with the vibrant Torbay Hi-Tech Cluster. The aim is to establish a mutual agreement that fosters the sharing of technical capabilities between tenants of both centres. This arrangement will not only enhance the value of government-funded capital projects but also provide companies with access to a broader range of technical expertise.

EPIC currently boasts an impressive collection of technical capabilities worth over £3 million, including product assembly, device packaging, microscopy, and analysis. These resources are available for EPIC's tenants to utilise and leverage for their projects.
