Join our Illumination Works’ experts as they demonstrate the ease of representing the physical world in the PTC ThingWorx IoT platform by leveraging the “Thing” Model. Things (objects) in ThingWorx represent the business domain including operational technology systems and other physical assets. Things allow ThingWorx to integrate all data and information about assets in one centralized place. Each Thing in the physical world has a digital representation, or digital twin, within the ThingWorx domain model.

The Air Force Small Business Technology Transfer (AF STTR) program, a $97M small business program, is reaching out to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) with an opportunity for funding research and development through strategic partnerships with small businesses. The Air Force SBIR/STTR is setup to address barriers that exist in the traditional Air Force Acquisition process. The AF SBIR/STTR has expanded the use of Open Topic solicitations, eliminating lengthy and cumbersome proposal processes. This allowed the Air Force to reach thinkers who might not have otherwise considered doing business with the U.S. government.
