European Space Week

This year, founders@unibw is taking part in the European Space Week! 

The European Space Week 2020 is jointly organized by the European Commission and the European global navigation satellite systems agency (GSA) and gives us the opportunity to show the various activities regarding space of our university as well as to officially announce our intent to build the European New Space Accelerator together with CNES (French government space agency). Furthermore everyone has the opportunity to connect with more than 1,200 attendees from across Europe and beyond, to learn about the latest status of Galileo, Copernicus and EGNOS, discuss with industry leaders, space stakeholders and policymakers and discover the latest applications on Earth observation and satellite navigation. 

This year’s European Space Week will focus on how the EU Space Programme is contributing to achieving the European Commission’s priorities for 2019-2024, with sessions on the European Green Deal, the EU Space Programme and an economy that works for people, the EU Space Programme and a Europe fit for the digital age, and more. Particular focus will be put on how synergies among Galileo, EGNOS, Copernicus and GovSatCom can foster innovation, growth and sustainability. For communications enthusiasts and digital media lovers, a session on how to effectively communicate about the #EUSpace Programme will be led by top tech-influencers.
