THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Go Virginia Board has approved the Mobility Innovation Center (MIC) implementation grant, with EDA as subgrantee under the Hampton Roads Executive Roundtable. The three-year project will build shared advanced air mobility and UAS infrastructure, BVLOS and counter-UAS training capabilities, and workforce programs at the airport and nearby range assets. This creates significant funded needs for AAM systems, test range infrastructure, training content, safety tech, and program management over the implementation period.
Project aims to position Hampton Roads as a national hub for advanced air mobility, filling gaps in BVLOS, counter-UAS, and shared-use aviation training infrastructure.
