SC Aerospace Conference & Expo

 SC Aerospace Pitch Competition This event, held at our annual aerospace conference in October, will allow students to pitch their ideas “shark tank style” in front of a panel of judges to claim the title as 2018 Aerospace Innovation. The finalist will also claim over $3,000 in seed funding to launch ideas and mentoring from the USC I-Corps program. Students can apply online to enter the competition by September 14^th. 

In past conference events, we received the support of the Southeast top research professionals with industry and academic relationships with Boeing, IBM, KUKA Robotics, Lockheed Martin and NASA just to name a few, to highlight the conference. This year our keynote speaker Former NASA Administrator, General Charles Bolden will open Day 1 of the conference.

Lastly, we hope to make this event a competitive landscape as we have students from regional programs participating from University of South Carolina, Clemson University, NC State, University of Alabama and more.
