Big ideas need the right place to take flight.

That's why IGNITE Atlantic and Aerospace Park Atlantic have formed a new partnership to help aerospace, aviation, defence and autonomous-systems companies move new technologies from prototype to real-world testing and commercialization.

By combining Aerospace Park Atlantic’s runway, accessible airspace, hangars and proximity to marine infrastructure with IGNITE’s business support, mentorship and innovation networks, we’re creating new opportunities for companies to test, grow and invest in Southwest Nova Scotia.

This partnership is also an important step toward building skilled jobs, strengthening local supply chains and growing globally relevant industries in rural Nova Scotia.
