Get off its feet

Hi,
Can you tell me what the bold phrase means in the following sentences? Does it mean "develop"?
The main idea behind the Flight Plan Towards Sustainable Aviation Biofuels in Mexico is to analyse the existing and missing links in the supply chain for sustainable biofuels. It is similar to a road-mapping exercise in that it looks into the market drivers, the associated products and services, and the technologies that could help an aviation biofuel industry get off its feet.

Thank you.
