Metastars

METAcluster Support Towards a more resilient AeRospace and defence ecosystem” aims at supporting SMEs of the European Aerospace & Defence (ASD) ecosystem to reinforce their resilience to potential future shocks. The project will offer SMEs financial support to develop innovative projects and to benefit from services to adapt to new technologies, to develop or strengthen their green and digital transition, their innovation potential, their internationalisation strategy towards Japan and Canada, and the upskilling of their work force. With the support of the European Aerospace Cluster Partnership, this project will extend its network and impact through all European countries. The European Commission has funded 30 Euroclusters through Europe, answering the needs of the 14 ecosystems designed by Commissioner Thierry Breton. Despite the fact that METASTARS is, so far, the sole project dedicated to the aerospace sector, the partnership will liaise with other Euroclusters addressing cross-sectorial domains. METASTARS project is co-funded by the European Commission under agreement No 101074337. Funded by the European Union.
