    ESA has operated a network of Technology Brokers across its Member States since the early 1990s. The primary objective to date has been to facilitate the transfer of space technology into non-space applications. At CM22, the ESA Technology Brokers formally became part of the ScaleUp programme within ELEMENT 1, Component 4 – Technology Transfer 2.0. Their scope was expanded to also include spin-in to space activities and to find terrestrial companies who have innovative technologies that could benefit ESA and the space industry. The Network of ESA Technology Brokers is currently active in 10 Participating States. It has been agreed with the National Delegation of Belgium to implement an ESA Technology Broker in Belgium. The contract would be for 4 years (including ESA Spark Funding closure period).
