Boosting investment readiness and building relations with investors 

 

Space is the new technological revolution and it is changing the way we live, work and play. The EU Space programme, with components such as COPERNICUS (EU's Earth Observation and monitoring programme based on satellite and non-space data) and GALILEO (EU's Global satellite navigation and positioning system - GNSS) provides critical infrastructure and Space data for the digital transformation. Satellite data is a key enabler of digital innovations in many application areas such as Agriculture (precision agriculture and integrated farming solutions), Smart Cities (urban mapping, planning and infrastructure monitoring, urban transport, waste management, ...), Renewable Energies, Health (air quality and UV radiation forecast, ...) and many more.

The Tech Tour Space Investment Programme is designed to help European start-ups developing tech solutions in the Space sector or developing applications based on satellite data to boost their investment readiness and build relations with investors.

The Tech Tour Space Investment programme is organised by Tech Tour, in collaboration with acceleration and incubation programmes such as Go2Space-Hubs, Point.IoT, the Copernicus accelerator.
