May 28th NDIA Meeting: Georgia Space Port Briefing - What the Space Industry Means for GA
(firmenpresse) - ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/16/13 -- A special National Defense Industry Association (NDIA) Georgia Chapter Meeting scheduled for May. $15 registration will include space industry presentations, buffet lunch and panel discussion.
Important Space industry, education, and business development speakers will discuss Georgia's current status, and why Georgia has been described by International commercial Space companies as "the best location on the US east coast for Launch" and the proposed Camden County Spaceport site as "a goldmine for GA." The former Thiokol rocket test area is ideal for launches to the east over water and is convenient for shipping to other Spaceports in FL or VA.
For business in Georgia, a 1% market share increase for GA in an $80B Space industry means $800 million in new revenue, $2.4 million in additional economic impact, and a gain of 10,000 jobs for GA.
Georgia Tech produces more Aerospace Engineers (AEs) than any program in the country. New Space Industry development in Georgia could enable these and other STEM graduates to remain in state instead of fulfilling careers in other states as they now do.
