Eurospace Initial Guidance Paper “(Starting to) pave the way for the future of EU Space R&I”
The European Commission’s DG DEFIS is currently reflecting on the elaboration of a dedicated Space R&I Strategy at EU level. An R&I Strategy is one of the key pillars of a much-needed technology strategy, itself part of a future European-wide Industrial Strategy for Space.
In this context, the objective for the European space industry is that this R&I Strategy contributes to ensure the on-time availability of needed/advanced technologies – with the appropriate maturity and performance, the required level of non-dependence, and at competitive conditions – for risk mitigated implementation in the European institutional programmes, and in the commercial programmes where Industry faces an increasingly harsh competition.
The European space industry, represented by Eurospace, wishes to share its vision on the future of EU Space R&I in its Initial Guidance Paper “(Starting to) pave the way for the future of EU Space R&I”, available here.
