Introduction

The European Space Technology Harmonisation has been developed to achieve well-coordinated research and development (R&D) activities among all actors of the European space sector, establishing a strong technology base as a means of underpinning the worldwide competitiveness of European Industry and ensuring the success of future space missions.

Invitation to the Meeting

The ESA Harmonisation Team is pleased to invite interested participants to the Mapping Meeting of the 2nd Cycle 2023 Harmonisation.

The Mapping Meeting will be an opportunity to share information on national capabilities, on-going and planned activities, strategic interests, mission needs, and recommendations for defining the Harmonisation Roadmaps of the following space technology topics:

1. Big Data from Space
2. System Modelling and Simulation Tools
3. Photonics
4. Chemical Propulsion - Components

The Mapping Meetings will be organised in hybrid format at ESTEC using the WebEx software during the period 14-15 June 2023 and will be followed by a social reception on the 14th of June 2023.

For more information, please consult the Programme.
