We’re delighted to open the #ATIBoeingAccelerator Demo Day with an introduction from Sir Martin Donnelly, President @BoeingEurope and MD @BoeingUK. It’s been incredible to work with Boeing and have their support for our 10 #startups creating #sustainability-enabling #tech ✈️ 
Thank you Minister Paul Scully @scullyp @beisgovuk for joining our Cohort Two Demo Day! "The #ATIBoeingAccelerator is a fantastic resource, providing world-class #startups with great opportunities to innovate and grow in the UK."
"Despite the challenges the sector faces, we must continue to find areas of #innovation as the world slowly but surely recovers from the pandemic." It's fantastic to have Nour Eid @UKAeroInstitute support us at the #ATIBoeingAccelerator and provide his insights into #aerospace
… and we’re live! 🚀 Kicking off with an intro from Nour Eid, Programme Lead at the #ATIBoeingAccelerator and Senior Technologist at the @UKAeroInstitute sharing more about the ATI and the programme objectives
Programme Director, Gabriela Matic, introduces our first cohort and the 9 incredible #startups, how we've supported founders and their teams and some of the programme highlights incl. @nadhimzahawi attending our launch event and the cohort traveling to @GKNAero in Filton
A thread on Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF):
Dynamics of the process in one image (which I re-drew due to legal issues for the presentation😂). Key takeaway: this process has A TON of parameters/levers to pull on an already highly stochastic process.

On powder: the goal is to get a flat, homogeneous, and tightly packed layer of spherical particles before we even start with the laser. The dynamics of powder spreading become important to understand.

We need to control:
- Powder size distribution
- Particle morphology
- Chemistry
- Re-use of the powder
To ensure high quality metallurgy of outgoing parts.
