EUSPA Space Downstream Innovation Days

The event will offer participants the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the latest funding opportunities for innovators, businesses and researchers but also an overview of latest novelties in the EU Space Programme and its services.

The EU Space downstream sector has been experiencing a large growth over the last years as space data is becoming more and more accessible to end users. Businesses are turning into geospatial data from Copernicus or GNSS data from Galileo and EGNOS to take their businesses to new levels and optimize their operations. To help aspiring entrepreneurs, start-ups or SMEs incubate their ideas, EUSPA is organizing its first Space Downstream Innovation Days.

The event aims at giving an overview to prospective applicants of the latest EUSPA/EU financial instruments for space business development. More specifically the programme will include:

• an intro to the Horizon Europe Space Work Programme 2021-2022
• all you need to know about the EGNSS and Copernicus market uptake call
• an intro to the EIC Horizon and CASSINI Prize for digital space applications

Other funding opportunities include Fundamental Elements, EUSPA’s R&D tool to support the development of EGNSS-enabled chipsets, receivers and antennas and grants and procurements for the Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS).

The event will take place from 8 -9 November 2021. The event will be held physically in Prague and also online.

The registration for the event is required and available here.
