ESA’s Navigation Directorate leads the design, development, qualification and R&D of world-class EU programmes Galileo and EGNOS and is shaping the future of satellite navigation with ESA programmes NAVISP, Leo-PNT IoD and GENESIS under FutureNAV and Moonlight, focused on innovation, competitiveness and in-orbit demonstrations.

Preparing for the future of navigation means exploring and maturing novel technologies for more resilient and ubiquitous positioning, navigation and timing services. FutureNAV enables ESA to respond to trends and needs in this field and allows Europe to stay on the cutting edge of satellite navigation technology. 

Through market intelligence, identifying R&D priorities, maturing novel concepts and technologies and cultivating industrial capacity, ESA is shaping the future of navigation, hand in hand with European industry and the European Union.  ESA Navigation Directorate is pleased to invite you to the 1^st Future NAV Industry Day on February 18^th 2025 at ESTEC, the Netherlands.
