Market conditions for the space industry workshop

In the context of the targeted consultation for the 'A Space Strategy for Europe' initiative, the European Commission is organising a 2-day workshop dedicated to market conditions for the space industry on 5 and 6 July 2016.

The workshop will take a comprehensive view of Earth observation, satellite navigation and telecommunications focusing on:

• overcoming barriers specific to space markets.
• new business models.
• establishing the space business ecosystem and boosting entrepreneurship.
• smart financing.
• streamlining space in EU policies.

The workshop is aimed at public and private space sector representatives. It presents an opportunity to discuss and exchange views about improving market conditions in the space industry.

High-level speakers from the Commission, the European Space Agency (ESA), national public institutions, industry and users will share their experiences and animate the discussion.
