The ESA_LAB network is an initiative which enables partnerships between ESA and Universities in the Engineering and Business domains, with the purpose of fostering Research and Innovation in European Space Activities, their Sustainability, and to expand Europe’s commercial talent capacity for a future skilled workforce, as outlined in ESA’s Agenda 2025.
Key elements of the ESA_LABs
The ESA_LAB network is dedicated to enhancing Europe’s commercial space sector by:
- Promoting, conducting and coordinating research activities and the diffusion of scientific results related to data from space, their management, protection, distribution, and usage.
- Supporting and developing scientific collaborations with thematically associated international projects, with national and international research institutes and with private companies in the research areas related to space.
- Organising and promoting teaching activities, high-level training, scientific meetings, workshops, publications and exhibitions for the development and diffusion of research activities related to the commercial space sector.
