Puglia is preparing to become a European reference point for training in the Innovative Air Mobility (IAM) sector thanks to AIRMOB – Developing skills and capabilities for Innovative AIR Mobility , a four-year project funded by the European Commission and officially launched last March, according to a press release from Deep Blue, a Rome-based SME specialized in aviation research and training,
The main partners include the Italian Deep Blue , EuroUSC Italia , the Aerospace Technology District (DTA) , Unisalento and ITS Mobilità Sostenibile Aerospazio .
“AIRMOB aims to concretely respond to the challenges of air mobility of the future: lack of specialized skills, difficulty in innovation and technological integration in SMEs, and lack of qualified workforce,” says the report. “The project aims to fill these gaps with 20 new training courses in five European countries, 15 career kits , refresher courses for professionals and international internships for over 240 students .
Deep Blue will coordinate the AIRMOB project and will develop a multilingual online platform with educational materials, job opportunities and an AI-based virtual assistant, called IAM-GPT .
“AIRMOB is a crucial project as it offers a strategic opportunity to consolidate the development of Innovative Air Mobility in Italy and Europe – said Aurora De Bortoli Vizioli , Senior Consultant and Project Manager of Deep Blue – As leader of the project, Deep Blue’s role will be to foster synergy between industry, academia and policy makers at both national and transnational level, in order to ensure sustainability and growth opportunities for the future of the sector.”
