Powerful Partnership: Firehole Tech + AeroMorphology, A UAV Win


Firehole + AeroMorphology logos Firehole Technologies, Inc. has a new partnership with the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) industry specialist, AeroMorphology LLC, which will focus on taking the solutions developed by Firehole to the UAV industry.

"In the past few years, we have built some game-changing technologies for simulating composite material structures. Through our Industry Solution Partner program, we are building strategic alliances to take our products and services into new vertical markets," said Jerad Stack, Firehole’s CEO. Duane Hill, CEO of AeroMorphology, added, "Firehole not only has a staff of extremely qualified individuals in composites analysis, their energy level/enthusiasm is contagious. I am excited about this partnership and the possibilities our two companies have in providing meaningful value to the specific needs of the UAV industry."

Composites are absolutely critical to the UAV industry. If we can help optimize design, we can allow for additional weight savings — that in turn means more fuel and longer missions. Through both our specialized analysis software and almost 110 years combined composites experience, we believe we can bring tangible results to those responsible for the design and analysis of UAVs," said Jason Gies, VP of Business Development at Firehole Technologies. The partnership will leverage AeroMorphology’s understanding of the UAV industry to develop targeted marketing and technology demonstrations for UAV OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers.
