Aerópolis is the place to be for aerospace businesses. Year after year, figures show that our companies grow more and better, creating an active business community, which is positioned as an international reference and one of the best examples of technological development in Andalusia.

In its 15 years of life, the Park has created an innovation ecosystem in which partners, customers, suppliers, researchers and institutions are working hand in hand to boost the development of the aerospace sector, largely because of its unique values:

l The only Science and Technology Park in Europe 100% aerospace.

l In the best location: in the heart of the Andalusian aerospace sector and one of the three major aerospace hubs in Europe.

l The only Science and Technology Park which includes an OEM and a Final Assembly Line (FAL) of aircrafts.

l Exclusive business community, made up of more than 80 companies involved in major international aerospace programs.

l Space in which major national and international aerospace events take place.

l Wide and varied offer of excellent technology infrastructures and spaces made to measure for any type of aerospace company.

Visit from students from the University of Hannover 3.2. R & D Financing September 28th Information Day on public funds instruments for investment and R &D projects Aerópolis hosted the visit of thirty students of Institute 26th February of Economic Geography, University of Hannover, Ger- many, interested in the case of the Park as successful experience based on geographical and sectoral specialization, specifically in the area aerospace.

The young students met with the representatives of the Park, who explained in detail the evolution of Aerópolis since its creation as a technology site of excellence, the various stages of its operating model and its current situation as a reference in the sector in Spain.

Attendees showed great interest in learning about the technological infrastructures and advanced services offered by the Park as well as the role of cooperation between public administration and business.

The Centre for Advanced Aerospace Technologies (CA- TEC), and the company Impulso, with the collaboration of Aerópolis, organized an information day to inform about existing funding mechanisms for companies in the sector, for both investment projects and R&D, and the dates of upcoming calls and subsidies available for 2016. The aim of the conference focused on placing Andalusian companies in the scenario of this type of funding, such as the Competitiveness and Reindustria- lization programme of the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism; Collaboration Challenges programme of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness or CIEN and Innterconecta programmes of the Centre for the Development of Industrial Technology (CDTI).

In addition, success stories of this kind of projects in different industrial sectors and examples of initiatives developed by CATEC that could be subject to applications for several of the calls presented, were also expo- sed. The conference was attended by more than twenty companies and stakeholders, and ended with a round of questions and discussion in which attendees could raise doubts and concerns on the subject. 41 A dynamic and active aerospace community
