  We study compactifications of type IIA string theory on Calabi-Yau manifolds
that are mirror to a subset of the type IIB LARGE-volume models. A combination
of flux, alpha' corrections and non-perturbative effects stabilises the moduli
in a non-supersymmetric AdS vacuum. This vacuum has the feature that the
(ten-dimensional) string coupling is exponentially small which can naturally
lead to a TeV supersymmetry breaking scale with an intermediate string scale.
The AdS vacuum can be uplifted to a dS one through the introduction of D6
branes, and complex-structure modular inflation can be realised.
