Boeing And QinetiQ Join Forces

Companies to Collaborate On ATC, UAV's

Boeing and QinetiQ have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to explore potential collaboration on the development of a variety of technologies, including aviation security, air traffic management, acoustics, lighting and cabin interiors, fuel cells and lightweight materials.

According to the agreement, Boeing's leading domain expertise in commercial and military aircraft, along with QinetiQ's pioneering research, could also allow for development of lighter-than-air vehicles, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), systems integration, and Network Centric Operations.

Harry Stonecipher, president and CEO of The Boeing Company said: "This agreement is part of our effort to work with the best talent in the world to discover new technologies that will benefit our aerospace customers throughout the world. We intend to work together to maximize our potential to develop breakthrough enabling technologies that could help make the world a safer and cleaner place to live, as well as enhance the travel experience for millions of people every day."

QinetiQ CEO Sir John Chisholm, said, "Boeing and QinetiQ will work together in selected technology areas that will make a significant contribution to one of the world's most dynamic industries during an important phase of its evolution."

Under this agreement, Boeing's European Research and Technology Center in Madrid, Spain, will work closely with QinetiQ to identify potential collaborative projects. Since it began operations in 2002, the Madrid center, which currently employs about 30 Europeans, has become recognized in aviation safety, environment and air traffic management in Europe.
