The Aerospace Alliance

The Aerospace Alliance’s mission is to establish the Southeast region as a world-class aerospace and aviation corridor. The Alliance’s member states of Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Florida, share the goal of promoting the region’s common assets and long-standing tradition of excellence in the aerospace industry to grow the sector in the region. Members advocate for policies, programs and specific aerospace projects on the local, state and national level. Member states, along with business leaders, economic development and workforce professionals, as well as government officials promote the region’s shared aviation and aerospace assets, continually elevate the states’ combined workforce, advance its preeminence as a world-class aerospace, aviation manufacturing location, and draw attention to the Gulf Coast states as one of the largest, most robust aerospace corridors in the world. Other priorities include the growth of space initiatives in the Alliance states driven by both private-sector companies and the nation’s space program. By attracting major programs and projects, the region will also be more attractive to suppliers. This ripple effect will mean more jobs and will further enhance the region’s economic growth.
