1 January 2012 INEAP meeting Space Coast Clusters

2 Outline for today ✓ The task: Design and implement cluster strategy ✓ The model: How clusters form ✓ Our approach: Analysis, activation, support ✓ Our progress: Results, where we stand ✓ Next steps: The road ahead

3 The Task Design and implement cluster strategies for the Space Coast

4 The Task Introduce disciplines that lead to shared value

5 How clusters form Trusted networks “learn to link” and leverage assets

6 The process Developing an innovating cluster takes time, focus and discipline

7 The process Time, focus and discipline

8 Our approach 1) Identify 2) Activate and 3) Support Identification: What are our assets and how could they be connected? Activation: What are our priority collaborative investments? Support: How do we leverage and sustain collaborative innovation?

9 Innovating clusters forming Space Coast Energy Consortium

10 The process Time, focus and discipline 123 July 2010 Dec 2010 Today

11 Advanced Magnet Lab – Palm Bay, FL Structural Composites - West Melbourne, FL Hills, Inc. - West Melbourne, FL First Sample – 12/2009 Textile Fiber Manufacturing Processes Typical Superconductor Wire Cross Section One-Stop Connector – Leveraging Business Partnerships for New Innovations

12 Florida’s Cleantech Industry Space Coast Energy Consortium, 2011 – All Rights Reserved Asset Mapping to Identify & Build Connections

13 Clean Energy Generation / Transmission & Transport / Usage Biofuel; Buildings; Fuel Cells; Electric Vehicles Hydrogen; PhotoVoltaics; Turbines Superconductivity 3D Printed Electronics Cryogenics Simulation Nano Technology Advanced Materials Products Enabling Technologies Markets Industry Clean Energy Jobs Accelerator Areas of Focus:

14 Space-to-Energy Opportunities Portable Emergency Power Systems Smart Grid & Energy Storage Demonstrations 3-D Printing Turbine Efficiency Testing International Space Station Research Space Coast Energy Consortium, 2011 – All Rights Reserved

15 Two Grant Awards to Develop Clean Energy Hub in Central Florida 1) Space Coast Clean Energy Jobs Accelerator (CEJA) –$2.15 Million Federal, $250k Space Florida => $2.4 Million Total 2) Igniting Innovation Cleantech Acceleration Network (I 2 CAN) –$1.15 Million Federal, $613k Local Match => $1.76 Million Total

16 Identification Focus on five established clusters 1) Clean Energy 2) Information Technology, Telecommunications 3) Defense, Security 4) Aerospace, Aviation 5) Life Sciences, Bio-Sciences

17 Insights from identification Opportunities emerge at the edges

18 Insights from identification Opportunities emerge at the edges

19 Insights from activation Region needs continued work to develop collaborative habits Boundaries discourage open innovation

20 Support Our work successfully leveraged over $5 million in outside funding

21 Next step insights Who leads? Who is “the pusher” for cluster development? Who “owns” cluster incubation? How do we make the Space Coast a national leader in cluster development?

22 Next steps The Regionerate role moving forward

23 CAMT ACE Initiative

24 The ACE Regional Innovation Cluster NREL Other research facilities NASA Other federal labs Universities Aerospace company Solar panel manufacturer High-end precision tooling Electronics manufacturer Testing facilities Governor’s Office Other public organization s Local governments Economic development agencies CAMT Regional innovation clusters are geographic concentrations of connected groups focused on innovation in a particular industry Aerospace and clean energy offer growth, and the industries complement each other Colorado’s ACE strengths Cutting-edge research facilities Capable manufacturers Supportive coordinating organizations The ACE Cluster accelerates innovation in Colorado’s aerospace and clean energy ACE Regional Innovation Cluster

25 Technology Development Path
