Industry Minister Alan Mak will celebrate a multibillion-pound funding milestone for cutting-edge green technology in the UK aerospace sector today.<\/h2>\n

The Minister will join UK aerospace industry leaders at an event to mark the ten-year anniversary of the Aerospace Technology Institute<\/a> (ATI), a joint government and industry-funded organisation that drives world-class research in sustainable, zero-emission aircraft and green technology.<\/p>\n

He will join Airbus, Rolls-Royce and a range of other leaders to celebrate the success of the ATI in making the UK a world leader in cleaner and greener air travel<\/a>, with \u00a33.6bn of government and industry funding being allocated to more than 400 different aerospace R&D projects across the breadth of the UK over the past decade.<\/p>\n

This funding has helped deliver the long-term change our country needs to deliver a brighter future for Britain and improve economic security and opportunity for everyone.<\/p>\n

Pioneering new green technology projects<\/h3>\n

These projects are advancing new green technology, which will help develop a new generation of zero-emission aircraft, supporting thousands of high-skilled jobs in the aerospace sector.<\/p>\n

Industry Minister Alan Mak said: \u201cOur world-class aerospace sector is a British success story, with government and industry coming together to provide billions of pounds in unprecedented support to help us lead the way on cleaner, greener air travel.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the last decade, the ATI has been crucial to this, helping our aerospace industry soar to new heights and supporting thousands of jobs while continuing to grow our economy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over a decade ago, the government and industry, through the Aerospace Growth Partnership, created the ATI, responding to calls for the UK to develop its own R&D programme.<\/p>\n

This has secured long-term planning and funding sources through the ATI Programme, with new funding for transformative green technology projects in air transport.<\/p>\n

Furthering the aviation research agenda through developing cleaner, greener air travel is a principal aim of the ATI.<\/p>\n
