AIMday™ Aerospace Sustainability

November 30, 2023

Fast track solutions through organization/academic collaboration

Academic Industry Meeting day, or AIMday, is an internationally recognized opportunity to tackle questions around a central theme. This highly effective program enables university-based researchers and organizations to connect and bring world-class research to life. By matching an organization’s need for new knowledge with academic expertise, AIMday brings understanding and new perspectives to real-world problems.

Established in 2008 at Uppsala University, Sweden, AIMday has been implemented and refined by leading universities around the world.

Hosted by Toronto Metropolitan University in collaboration with Downsview Aerospace Innovation & Research, AIMday Aerospace Sustainability aims to address current challenges that affect the aerospace industry – including additive manufacturing, lightweighting, sustainable aviation fuels, novel aircraft design, carbon-neutral technologies, advanced manufacturing processes and optimization of flight operations. This event will offer organizations a unique opportunity to chart new paths and reimagine how to address sustainability in aerospace.
