ENGINEERING RESEARCH CENTER FOR THE AERIAL MOBILITY OF THE FUTURE

FLYMOV

The development of innovative and possibly disruptive technologies is vital for the future of the aeronautical industry. Embraer and ITA, celebrating their long-term partnership, with the support of FAPESP, present FLYMOV. An Engineering Research Center (EPC) to study and develop pre-competitive solutions to transform the future of air mobility.

To raise the level of technological readiness, through basic and applied research on emerging technologies, significantly reduces uncertainties and associated risks to generate innovations for production processes, new products and new services.

FLYMOV mobilizes more than 130 people, including researchers, Embraer employees and scholarship holders – Scientific Initiation, Masters, Doctorate and Post-Doctorate – in an ambitious initiative aimed at establishing a new benchmark for the competitiveness of the national industry and for the training of professionals who will transform the air mobility innovation ecosystem.

LOCATION

LOCATION - The central node of the FLYMOV Research Network is located at ITA (Technological Institute of Aeronautics) , our host institution. The research network goes far beyond the boundaries of the building, it is comprised of renowned institutions such as UNICAMP and USP/São Carlos, through its researchers and laboratories infrastructure.

We seek excellence in the applied research process through the involvement of professionals of recognized competence in their areas of knowledge, engaged in the partnership between Academia and Industry, aiming to transform air mobility."

Who we are

WHO WE ARE - We have a multidisciplinary team with technical and administrative support to ensure proper management of research activities and focus on results of researchers and their teams. In addition, it is worth highlighting the joint execution of initiatives related to Technology Transfer, Education and Knowledge Dissemination, and also our Project Management Office.

Within the governance model established by FAPESP, the Center also has a Strategic Council, containg members from Embraer, ITA and FAPESP, which guides the definition of applied research priorities, and validates the annual operating results. This board is supported by an International Advisory Board that advises on trends and opportunities within Science, Technology and Innovation Ecosystem, aiming at ensuring the competitiveness of state-of-the-art research and an international standards.
