On this episode of the Additive Insight podcast, we're joined by Alex Hickson and Matt Bailey of the Aeropsace Technology Institute.

Hickson and Bailey are both part of the ATI’s Structures, Manufacturing & Materials team, with Hickson serving as Head of Technology and Bailey as a Lead Technologist.

Through their roles, Hickson and Bailey have contributed to the development of additive manufacturing and wider technology strategies that seek to support the adoption and application of advanced design and manufacturing techniques.

As they join the Additive Insight podcast, the pair provide their perspective on the challenges and opportunities around AM implementation in civil aerospace, while sharing the progress made since the release of its AM strategy in 2024.

We also discuss what will be needed to meet net-zero targets by 2050 and how those in industry can support the organisation moving forward.
