    Our team was at Willoughby Spit in Norfolk, VA today for the Old Dominion University Maritime Autonomous Systems Test Site (MASTS) Opening Celebration!

    A landmark collaboration between ODU and the City of Norfolk, VA, MASTS is positioning Hampton Roads as a global hub for unmanned maritime systems innovation.

    We are looking forward to today’s ribbon cutting event of this physical site and its tangible result of regional investment, shared vision, and ODU’s commitment to leading in emerging technology sectors.
