(BPRW) Tulsa to Secure U.S. Position as Global Tech Leader with Approximately $51 Million Award from Economic Development Administration
==========
The Biden-Harris administration and the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) have awarded approximately $51 million to the Tulsa Hub for Equitable and Trustworthy Autonomy (THETA) to strengthen the region's capacity in autonomous systems. The consortium, led by Tulsa Innovation Labs, aims to advance U.S. global leadership in trustworthy and equitable autonomous systems, such as uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) and autonomous vehicles, drones, and robotics. The funding will support projects including increasing coordination on commercialization strategies, building a testing and simulation environment, developing programs for manufacturers, creating an AI Center of Excellence, expanding workforce programs, and establishing governance structures. The Greater Tulsa Region aims to stake a claim on the $1.36 trillion global autonomous systems market and create up to 56,000 new jobs in the next decade. The final grant amount will be finalized in the coming months. The consortium includes over 75 partners across public and private sectors, including Black Tech Street, Cherokee Nation Businesses, L3Harris Aeromet, Madison Strategies Group, NORDAM, Oklahoma State University, Osage LLC, PartnerTulsa, Radius Capital, The University of Tulsa, Tulsa Community College, and Tulsa Economic Development Corporation.
