Developing new technology is tough, and pushing it to market prematurely can lead to failure. NASA created Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs), a 9-level scale to assess the maturity of your technology, helping to identify development needs and risks. From basic principles (TRL 1) to proven systems (TRL 9), TRLs guide you through the journey. Widely used by NASA, the Department of Defense (DoD), the Department of Energy (DoE), and others, TRLs are crucial for government contracts and innovation. Don’t get stuck in the “Valley of Death” - let our experts help you succeed! Learn more about TRLs here: https://buff.ly/4cG2dtM

The future of DJI drones in America is uncertain as the Countering CCP Drones Act, introduced by Rep. Elise Stefanik, gains traction in Congress. If passed, it could ban DJI drones nationwide, impacting various sectors but creating opportunities for smaller manufacturers. Key Points: 1. National Security Concerns: The bill targets DJI over fears of data sharing with the Chinese government. 2. Market Impact: A ban would disrupt industries relying on DJI drones, from agriculture to public safety. 3. Opportunities: Smaller and domestic drone manufacturers could fill the gap, sparking innovation and competition.

Building public trust in Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is crucial. So, how does a state achieve that? Organizations like NASA have already put effort into assessing how AAM will benefit the public good. Education initiatives break down complex AAM topics into digestible information sources, while real-world use cases and hands-on experiences make AAM relatable and inspire future innovation. For example, drones can be used for delivering life-saving drugs, locating a missing person, and surveying an environment in a minimally invasive manner. Learn more about how building public trust is the key to success in AAM: https://buff.ly/4c5BiqI
