Listen "Elevating Airspace Innovation"
Episode Synopsis
In 2016, local leaders recognized the potential of making Central New York a globally recognized center for uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) innovation. That vision was turned into reality thanks to unparalleled state investments. Now, our region has an ecosystem of research and development assets like an FAA designated test site, beyond visual line of sight testing and advanced air mobility (AAM) capabilities that are at the leading edge of this growing industry. Also, Central New York is home to the world’s largest UAS accelerator GENIUS NY, which is operated by CenterState CEO. On this episode of Talk CNY Season 2, presented by NBT Bank, GENIUS NY Director Kara Jones joins Katie Zilcosky to talk all things GENIUS NY and UAS in CNY.
