HUNTSVILLE, AL, Oct 14, 2025 – Titomic has announced about their selection as one of five companies to join the second cohort of the CRP DefenseTech Accelerator, a collaboration between the Huntsville/Madison county chamber, Cummings Research Park (CRP), and Treble One. Representing Titomic is Sarah Neeley, chief operating officer.
The program strengthens Titomic’s position in the defense and aerospace sectors by providing the opportunity to:
- Secure at least one prime contract with the U.S. federal government
- Secure at least one subcontract with a U.S. federal government prime contractor
- Partner with at least one prime contractor or OEM
The DefenseTech Accelerator helps companies scale technologies for defense and commercial use. Five companies were selected for this year’s program: Titomic, FC Renew, MESO Space, SkyfireAI, and Vivum AI. The program supports the development of solutions that meet the priorities of the U.S. Department of the Air Force and the Department of Defense (DoD).
The 2025 cohort launched on Sep 30, 2025, at The University of Alabama in Huntsville’s Invention to Innovation Center (I²C), where companies will participate through Dec 2025. The Accelerator provides mentorship, business development support, and connections to defense and commercial partners.
Sarah Neeley, COO of Titomic said: “Titomic is honored to be part of this prestigious program. The DefenseTech Accelerator represents a unique opportunity to collaborate with U.S. defense stakeholders and demonstrate how our advanced manufacturing technologies can enhance readiness and performance.”
This milestone marks Titomic’s move to become a partner to the U.S. DoD. By operating within Huntsville’s defense network and engaging with Air Force and DoD stakeholders, the company is positioning itself to support hypersonics, missile defense, aerospace, space, and sustainment programs.
Jim Simpson, CEO and managing director of Titomic commented: “Participation in the DefenseTech Accelerator enhances Titomic’s integration into the U.S. defense industrial base, aligning with its mission to provide resilient, rapid, and scalable advanced manufacturing solutions for national security needs.”
