FUEL FOR INNOVATION – ESA BIC start-ups in aerospace
How will we fly in the future? How can we make aircraft greener? What is the Next Big Thing that will disrupt the aerospace sector? Ten ESA Business Incubation Centre start-ups will be on stage at the Future Lab at ILA Berlin Air Show 26 April.
The ILA Future Lab provides a first look at the aerospace technologies that have the potential to change our world, how we travel and how we do business. Hosted by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi), the ILA Future Lab exhibition features cutting-edge technologies in space and aviation.
The Technology Transfer and Business Incubation Programme Office of the European Space Agency manages the Space Solutions Programme, which has created the world’s largest ecosystem for space related Entrepreneurship. The 18 ESA Business Incubation Centres (ESA BICs) support 160 companies per year and more than 600 new start-ups have so far been fostered.
Meet the most disruptive ESA start-ups together with Head of ESA Technology Transfer and Business Incubation Centre Office Frank M. Salzgeber, ESA BIC Manager Frank Zimmermann and Sabine Dannelke, the Head of Division Satellite Navigation/Galileo, Digitalization of Public Transport at the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure in Berlin, Germany.
