What exactly is SWaP-C, and what chance does your innovative product have if it doesn’t adhere precisely to its guidelines?

Let's break down this useful acronym and the complex way each component plays into each other. 👇

Thank you to @marshallu's Bill Noe Flight School for hosting a two-day roundtable event on Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) earlier this week!

[Sean Frisbee @SeanFrisbee]

Myself and the @VertxPartners team had a great time in D.C. We got to speak to some outstanding innovators and mix in a little fun.

[Vertx Partners @VertxPartners]

Last month, the Vertx Partners team attended the 2022 Defense TechConnect Innovation & Summit Expo in Washington, D.C.

It was fantastic seeing the most innovative businesses and entrepreneurs come together to share ideas, compete in competitions, & network with one another.

Too Valuable to Burn: Opportunities for #Carbon in #WestVirginia - @wvdevo @VertxPartners - #Innovation #SBIR #STTR and #Defense in #AlmostHeaven #YesWV https://t.co/ZObGDQpgIE

[Sean Frisbee @SeanFrisbee]

@AndyMalinoski @wvdevo @VertxPartners Thanks for allowing me to talk about the work the @VertxPartners team and our clients are doing in #WestVirginia.

[Sean Frisbee @SeanFrisbee]

Onshoring this technology should be a top priority, and the thread below explains exactly why. I'm thrilled to have AmeriCarbon in the @VertxPartners network to solve national security issues while lifting up the surrounding Appalachian Region.

[Vertx Partners @VertxPartners]

What is coal tar, and why is it a national security issue?

Coal tar is converted to coal tar pitch, a crucial ingredient for making carbon products such as solar panels, wind turbines, and military equipment. Currently, 72% of the world's coal tar supply comes from China.

[Sean Frisbee @SeanFrisbee]

This is exactly why the work that we're doing at @VertxPartners is necessary. We're lowering the barrier to entry of working with the government and elevating Appalachian businesses/innovators. Grateful that @SenCapito, @Sen_JoeManchin, and @Parallax_ARD believe in the mission.

[Vertx Partners @VertxPartners]

Nearly $30 billion was awarded by the federal government from 2010 - 2020. How much did West Virginia receive? Just over $40 million. 📉

That's why Vertx was founded - to help WV get its fair share of @DeptofDefense dollars.

[Sean Frisbee @SeanFrisbee]

Everyone - this is a company to pay attention to and one that our team at Vertx couldn't be more excited to work with. AmeriCarbon is doing revolutionary work #reshoring products and building #resiliency into America's advanced carbon material supply chain.

[Vertx Partners @VertxPartners]

We’re working with AmeriCarbon, a WV-based company making technological strides in the coal industry, built around redefining the production of carbon fiber. AmeriCarbon is revolutionizing the way we think about the use & value of coal.

This is great news for innovation and research development in West Virginia.

I advocated for this funding because I’m confident in @VertxPartners ability to spur economic development in our communities and move Appalachia forward.

[Sean Frisbee @SeanFrisbee]
